Dear member and friend of Action Together,

Action Together is making a few changes that as a valued member and friend of our charity I’d like you to know about.

There are two main changes:
We are reorganising our teams to create a dedicated team for each area. One that only works in Oldham or Tameside respectively. Each team will be led by a Strategic Lead, supported by our central and leadership team. 
We are excited to be working across the borough of Rochdale from 1 February and will be recruiting a dedicated team for Rochdale.
