Advisory Group

 

The Advisory Group provided expert advice, guidance, intelligence and direction regarding complex issues that impacted upon the Greater Manchester's Hidden Talent programme. 

The Advisory Group comprised cross-sector representatives, many of whom provided strategic intelligence for Greater Manchester Talent Match and Greater Manchester’s Hidden Talent (March 2019 to June 2021).

Members of the Advisory Group act as advocates, providing advice, insight and strategic direction to the Project Team and Delivery Partnership to ensure that the programme’s long-term strategic outcomes are met - particularly with regard to facilitating long-term change for hidden young people.

Members used their networks and influence to provide communication links to and brokerage with relevant individuals and organisations, and helped to share information, knowledge and learning.
