Liverpool is a city full of heart, pride, resilience and community. But it is also a city where far too many young people face daily struggles - from poverty and exclusion to violence and lost opportunity.
At The Big Trust, we believe that no young person should be written off - no matter their past, their postcode, or the challenges they've faced. We are here to offer hope, support, and a second chance to those who need it most.
But we cannot do this alone. To continue our life-changing work, we need your support. We need people like you to donate, to fundraise, and to stand with us as we help transform lives across the Liverpool City Region.
Liverpool: A city full of potential, held back by inequality
The statistics are shocking:
Liverpool has some of the highest levels of deprivation in the UK..
A growing number of young people are NEET (Not in education, employment or training).
Many are caught in cycles of antisocial behaviour, exclusion, and crime.
Young ex-offenders often return to the same environments with no support, no prospects, and no one to believe in them.
These young people are not beyond help. They are full of untapped potential, waiting for someone to give them a real chance.
The Big Trust: Standing in the gap
We work with:
Ex offenders seeking a fresh start and a way out of reoffending.
NEET students who've disengaged from the system, helping them reconnect with purpose.
Young people involved in antisocial behaviour, giving them positive alternatives and mentorship.
Disadvantaged youth who've never had a role model or opportunity to shine.
Through mentoring, skills training, employability programmes and local business partnerships, we help young people rewrite their stories - from hopelessness to opportunities.
But we need the funding to keep going - and that's where you come in.
How you can help right now:
Donate:
Every pound makes a difference. Whether you give once or monthly, your support directly funds our frontline work in the Liverpool city region.
Fundraise for us:
Want to do more? Organise a fundraising event, e.g. a sponsored run for our charity, anything you can do - big or small - and help us reach even more young people.
Run a 5k, 10k or marathon
Host a charity football match or quiz night
Set up a workplace fundraiser or school event.
Take on a sponsored challenge - climb, cycle, bake, dance!
We will support you with resources, social media promotion and encouragement every step of the way.
Together, we can build a better future
The truth is, without donations and fundraising, our work cannot continue. The need in Liverpool is growing, and so important - and so must our response.
When you support The Big Trust, you're not just giving money. You're giving:
A young person an employment pathway
A second chance to people who have been left out or on the wrong path.
A safe alternative to a young person on the edge of crime.
A belief that they can turn things around.
Be part of the solution. Help us break the cycle. Help us build hope.
