George Rodgers - Local Offer Assistant
I update all Local Offer information onto Our Rochdale. I do this by checking with services and SEND teams. I like to search for new activities and meet external organisations. I keep in close contact with Parent Carers Voice. I change details if they’re incorrect to the service.
