About this Event

Join us for a day of collaboration at Belle Vue Speedway as we host the second Manchester Community Activity Alliance - Conference Day .

We believe this is a great opportunity for you to engage with other like-minded local community clubs and organisations, whilst also benefitting from tailored workshops which have been identified as priority areas of development based on feedback.

We are collaborating with various partners to run these workshops, each lasting around 60 minutes. Attendees will have the chance to attend all of the workshops throughout the day. There will also be additional stalls from other Manchester organisations, offering thier support and services.

Throughout, the day there will be plenty of time to network and engage with guest speakers, partners and other attendees. We really hope you can join us!

Refreshments and lunch will be provided.

There is a small fee attached to this event, which has been subsidised by Manchester Active at £10.*
