Description

Accelerated process - urgent requirement to source a company able to deliver outcomes quickly on reporting Covid related opinion and impact in Greater Manchester. We are therefore looking to appoint a research partner to provide regular, ongoing insight on these issues and impacts, relevant for Greater Manchester as a whole and our ten local authority areas.
Building this evidence will provide a strong foundation to help ensure our communications and engagement activities are insight-led and appropriately delivered and targeted, and supporting the behaviour change we need to inspire across the population to stop COVID-19 (coronavirus) and its unequal impacts
