The Manchester Street Engagement Hub
The Street Engagement Hub is an innovative initiative led by Greater Manchester Police, bringing together 14 partner agencies to provide practical, person-centred support.
The Hub offers rapid access to services such as drug and alcohol treatment, mental health support, and accommodation, as well as connections to organisations that help people live safer, more stable lives.
Referrals mainly come from GMP’s Street Engagement Team and Manchester City Council’s Anti-Social Behaviour Action Team (ASBAT).
