The service is free and fully funded and can offer up to 12 sessions of counselling for individuals or couples as well as advice, information and guidance. They are commissioned to deliver this service across the North West and are looking to connect and work with local agencies to increase awareness of their service in Manchester and to establish referral pathways to enable coordinated support.
A provider event is being hosted on Friday 26 February 2016 in order to facilitate introductions and partnership working.
Two sessions on Friday 26, morning and afternoon, may be run dependant on numbers.
