An independent review of the response to the attack at Manchester Arena earlier this year is taking place.

If you were there or know someone who was or work with someone who was then the team would like to hear from you before November 10.

Lord Bob Kerslake, chair of the review panel commissioned by the Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham, has launched a six week period to gather information about the response to the incident and the events in the immediate aftermath.

The panel has signed up children’s charity the NSPCC to provide support to the review, with those who wish to share their experiences able to do so through its helpline service. The NSPCC’s Childline service is also available to support children affected by the attack.

The group is aiming to submit an initial findings report in January, with a full report with recommendations submitted to the Mayor of Greater Manchester in March 2018.
