Volunteer Centre Tameside working with Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service to carry out Home Risk Assessments

Volunteer Centre Tameside are working in partnership with Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service to recruit and train a group of volunteers to undertake home fire safety checks. The scheme will be funded by Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service and managed by Volunteer Centre Tameside.

Volunteers will be recruited in the conventional way to volunteer perhaps one day a week, but a new twist will see the Volunteer Centre work with employers in a bid to encourage them to permit employees to volunteer during working hours for perhaps a day a year. David Sharples has recently been appointed volunteer coordinator.

For further information about this innovative and challenging project, please contact David on 0161 339 2345.
