Claire House Children’s Hospice helps seriously and terminally ill children make the most of the time they have however long or short that may be. By providing specialist nursing and end of life care, as well as emotional support Claire House helps families through some of the toughest times of their lives.

Ykids works to improve the lives and futures of children, young people and their families living in some of the UK’s most deprived areas. While our heart and soul are in our local community of Bootle, we actively work across the Merseyside region; providing innovative mentoring programmes, school and literacy projects, sports & arts initiatives, large community events, parent groups and more.

We’ve been supporting families who have experienced domestic abuse and crisis situations since 1973. Centre 56 was the first refuge outside London, and we’ve supported thousands of women and children to escape violence. We’re no longer a refuge but we do offer a wide range of services to families in crisis.

A Young Carer is someone aged 6-18 who provides regular or ongoing care and emotional support towards a family member who is ill, disabled, has a mental health condition or misuses drugs or alcohol. We believe every Young Carer should have the same opportunities as other children and young people of a similar age.

Home-Start Knowsley is an independent charity established in 1999 to support local families with at least one child under the age of eleven. We offer a proven model of peer-led early help in the home to prevent crisis and build family resilience.

We enable, inspire and support children with cerebral palsy and their families.
