By harnessing the power of football through targeted youth engagement, we’re working together to help to create safer streets and brighter futures for young people across the Liverpool City Region.
LFC Foundation has worked closely with Merseyside Police to deliver a number of core programmes for vulnerable young people right across the region.
The focus of these initiatives – which include Premier League Kicks, Onside, Premier League Primary Stars and She Inspires – is to equip participants with new skills and qualifications, enabling and empowering them to be positive and active members of the community.
More than 11,000 young people throughout Merseyside have engaged with LFC Foundation activities as part of the EVOLVE programme. Key impacts include:
Matt Parish, CEO of LFC Foundation, said: “By working in partnership with Merseyside Police, local schools, community hubs and partner agencies, we have been able to reach vulnerable young people across Merseyside, supporting them in building skills, confidence and resilience to make positive choices for their future.
“We’re incredibly proud to be a part of the EVOLVE programme, and to play our part in the goal of tackling serious and organised crime and creating a safer Liverpool City Region for everyone.”
