Finding the real magic of Christmas (It's not in your trolley)
Christmas is close, the wonderful season when Liverpool glows a little brighter, the air smells like cinnamon, and there is twinkly lights everywhere. The Big Trust, we've been thinking a lot about what really matters during the festive season and the pressure that sneaks up on people this time of year.

Building Brighter futures together: The power of partnerships at The Big Trust
At The Big Trust, we believe that partnerships change lives. Every young person in the Liverpool City Region deserves the opportunity to thrive - to find their voice, to access meaningful work, and to shape a positive future for themselves and their community. For many young people, those opportunities can feel out of reach. That's where collaboration comes in. Real, lasting change happens when people, businesses and community leaders come together with a shared purpose: to g
