Event Details

Key Note Speaker

Neil McInroy – CLES (Centre for Local Economic Strategies)
In these globally challenging times with climate emergency and political uncertainty,
business has to respond to and navigate through both. In a thought provoking and
entertaining keynote speech, Neil will provide comment on these important issues
and consider Greater Manchester’s approach, the role of businesses as citizens and
as inclusive diverse 21st century employers who need to respond to these
challenges. Neil’s speech is not to be missed!

SPEAKERS

Nigel Bennett and Louise Atherton – Seetec
Many businesses in different sectors are interested in filling their skills gaps with
former prisoners but have questions about what this could mean for their company
and existing workforce. Nigel and Louise will aim to explore the challenges, explain
the benefits and explode the myths!

Sam Bolton – City of Trees
City of Trees is an innovative and exciting movement set to re-invigorate Greater
Manchester’s landscape by transforming underused, unloved woodland through
planting a tree for Greater Manchester residents within a generation. Sam will outline
how businesses and their staff can help this become a reality.

HOST

Sam Hawthorne – Message Enterprise Centre
Building on years of working in prisons, The Message Enterprise Centre was opened
to provide ex-offenders or those at risk of offending with full-time employment,
accredited training, and secure housing as they look to turn their lives around. It is a
model that has proven itself to work and is transforming lives.
