KQ Liverpool's 10th Anniversary Fundraiser
Over the past decade, Knowledge Quarter Liverpool (KQ Liverpool) has grown significantly, marking a number of key milestones along the way. This year, to mark our iconic 10th year, we are delighted to announced a series of ten major events and fundraising initiatives.
FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES
The KQ Liverpool team has undertaken a whole range of fundraising activities, including CEO Colin Sinclair running an incredible 130 mile ultra marathon from Hope Park in the Lake District, to Hope Street Hotel in Liverpool! His 'Tour De Ten' endurance challenge took place between 4-7th September, and has paved the way for the Tour De France's route next summer.
Other team members have undertaken daring abseils, runs and walks, organised cake sales and raffles, with other challenges still in the pipeline - including an Open Mic Night and Quiz Night.
All proceeds raised are being split equally between our three chosen charities for this year - all of whom support local children, young people and their families: Alfie's Squad, The Brain Charity, and Clatterbridge Cancer Charity.
KQ Liverpool's 10th Anniversary 'Ten for Ten' campaign follows hot on the heels of our previous fundraising efforts in 2025, which centered around Colin running a double-marathon across the Liverpool City Region in a single day, raising nearly £17,000 (incl gift aid) for six charities working with children and young people here in Liverpool.
Meet this year's Charities:
THE BRAIN CHARITY
The Brain Charity offers emotional support, practical help and social activities to anyone with a neurological condition, and to their family, friends, and carers, with bespoke activities for those aged 3-18 years old.
CLATTERBRIDGE CANCER CHARITY
Clatterbridge Cancer Charity is the only dedicated charity supporting patients and research at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre. As one of the UK’s leading cancer centres, it provides highly specialist cancer care to a population of 2.4m across Merseyside, Cheshire and beyond, including many young people aged 16-25.
ALFIE’S SQUAD
Alfie’s Squad is the UK’s only charity providing face-to-face peer support for children and young people, aged 6-17, bereaved by suicide. Young members and their families feel understood, less alone, and supported after the loss of a loved one to suicide.
THANK YOU
