IAPT speed partnering event – 29 July 11:30-12:30

As part of the Mental Health Grants programme we are facilitating ‘speed dating’ style events where voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSE) representatives can meet with IAPT provider representatives to explore the potential for partnership development.

This relates to aim two of the Mental Health Grants programme to: increase the take-up of Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) programme services among communities that finds them difficult to access.

Please note: the speed partnering events are only open to VCSE organisations that are eligible to apply to the Mental Health Grants programme. To be eligible to apply to the grants programme VCSE organisations need to be undertaking a project that will benefit residents of the City of Manchester and that will address the primary aims of the grants programme, read more about the Grants programme here https://www.manchestercommunitycentral.org/mental-health-grants-programme
