Together Liverpool Strategic report on Activities

Progress and Highlights

2024 saw Together Liverpool begin the second phase of our Network of Kindness project following the successful securing of significant funding from the National Lottery. This phase will build on our previous work by supporting local faith communities to launch new social action projects, measure the impact they’re making and develop existing projects.

As this report shows, we have made significant progress in our efforts to support local faith groups build more generous, just and kind communities. Our developing impact assessment work, growth in diversity of the Network of Kindness and encouraging independent evaluation of our work have been real highlights from 2024.

We’re very grateful for the continued support of our funders as we enable local communities to work for justice.

‘The work of Together Liverpool is not only impactful within their local context but also serves as a model for other communities seeking to address complex social challenges as well as informing our own practice within CUF. Their dedication to collaboration, inclusivity, and innovation exemplifies the values of the Church Urban Fund and the broader Together Network.’ – Bishop Rob Wickham, Group CEO, Church Urban Fund

Highlights from 2024

Network of Kindness

Network of Kindness membership has passed 190 in 2024. These members are taken from a diverse range of Christian denominations with all of the mainstream Christian traditions represented in addition to Pentecostal, ecumenical groups as well as those with no faith.

Amongst our new members this year, we are delighted to have welcomed:

Project Evaluation

As part of the conclusion of the first phase of the Network of Kindness, we engaged Dr Jane Hobson, an independent evaluation consultant, to assess the impact of our work.

Through 1-2-1 meetings, surveys and reviewing key performance indicators, it was identified that ‘that Network membership has had a very positive impact on its members to date: increasing connection; creating opportunities for networking; providing rare spaces for reflection and exploration of social action themes that adapted to member needs; and developing and offering accessible and free training and resources on a variety of topics’.

Key findings of this evaluation were:

The findings of this evaluation have helped to shape the direction of the Network of Kindness with a renewed focus on impact assessment, diversifying membership and increasing our range of funding streams.

“Together Liverpool has enabled us to move this forward looking at the need locally beyond food and seeing how we can begin growing food, community gardens, sourcing financial support and wellbeing.” - Mark Wade, Network of Kindness member and Leader of Lifted in Wigan

Training and events

Across 2024 we have delivered an exciting and well received programme which has included 22 training events connecting with over 870 participants. We take a member-led approach to training and have valued suggestions and requests from the network. We have held sessions on subjects such as Trauma-Informed Practice, Social Value, Digital Inclusion and Impact Assessment as well as helping to organize and deliver events such as supporting prison leavers in HMP Altcourse.

“I would say to any one at church (who’s looking at a workshop) you should do this because it’s Together Liverpool, it’s the Network of Kindness and I know they are really good. Kate Wharton, Network of Kindness member and Vicar of St Bart’s Roby

Community Cohesion: Near Neighbours, Places of Welcome, Prison Leavers and Displaced People

We strengthened our work with faith communities to support vulnerable people. A highlight is our growing partnership with the HMP Liverpool Chaplaincy, through which we’re helping establish a new multi-faith charity for prison leavers. We also focused on engagement with prison leavers, displaced people and victims of modern slavery (including those affected by county lines), building partnerships with groups such as Welcome Churches and the Welcome Directory, delivering training and backing new funding bids. Nationally, we took part in Places of Welcome and, for the first time, Near Neighbours. We launched four new Places of Welcome and continued to support the 18 previously started through our Network of Kindness. Through Near Neighbours, we helped faith communities develop cohesion projects; two secured government grants, and we facilitated community conversations in diverse neighbourhoods.

Launching New Projects

Over the course of this year, we have supported the launch of 22 new projects. These have been delivered through our Feast of Fun and Learning Community programmes. The projects launched include a summer holiday club for children facing holiday hunger, a café to support people living with dementia and their carers as well as a number of groups tackling loneliness in their communities.

Over the next 12 months, we plan to deliver Learning Communities in Ormskirk and West Derby. We are also building a partnership with an organisation who has significant connections into independent and black majority churches which will increase the range of groups that we’re working with to enable new projects to launch. These partnerships take a long time to build but we’re confident that the results will be greater support for those communities and an increasingly diverse network.

Through Feast of Fun, we continue to offer microgrants to Network of Kindness members so they can tackle holiday hunger in their communities. These grants have enabled:

During our Summer Feast of Fun programme, a total 1,580 people took part in the activities, including 814 children and 766 adults. Of the activities:

100% engaged with families in receipt of free school meals

Over the next 12 months, we will support the delivery of 8750 meals during Easter & Summer holidays as well as October half term.

Trustees' report continued

“You have enabled holiday events to go ahead that would not have happened without your funding. Your funding has enabled us to build relationships with new families and provided healthy food for many when we know that some of the families fed, would not be able to fund such meals.” - Feast of Fun – Project Leader

Faith in the City

Faith in the City (1985) was a landmark Church of England report on the realities of urban life and the Church’s role within it. As the 40th anniversary in 2025 invites reflection on what has changed—and what has not—it also calls us to reimagine how churches respond with hope, action and solidarity today.

Together Liverpool, in partnership with Churches Together in the Merseyside Region, is leading a 40th Anniversary project to learn from the past and shape future practice. A project lead was appointed in autumn 2024 to coordinate the work.

The project explores three themes: (1) moving from charity to solidarity; (2) the difference faith makes; and (3) effective engagement between faith communities and civic leaders. Launched in November 2024, the programme includes: the annual Micah Lecture at Liverpool Cathedral (19 June 2025) on the report’s legacy; the Archdiocese of Liverpool’s Social Action Conference (11 July 2025); and a 40th Anniversary Celebration and Manifesto launch in November 2025. The Metro Mayor, civic leaders, senior faith leaders, local communities and charity partners will join us as we present a manifesto co-created with faith communities, setting shared priorities for the Liverpool City Region.

Impact Assessment & Social Value

We’re developing this work in two connected strands.

1) Digital Impact Assessment Tool.

Following a formal procurement, we’ve partnered with Kaleidoscope to build a digital tool that lets local groups enter project data and receive automated impact reports and social value calculations. We’ll then be able to aggregate results by area, faith tradition and social action theme, giving a clearer picture of activity across the Network. A focus group of 11 organisations—spanning locations, project types and faith communities—are shaping the user experience, data sets and report design. We’ve also created training to help groups collect local data well and use their reports effectively. The tool is on track to launch in autumn 2025 and will be available to all Network of Kindness members.

2) Community of Practice on Social Value.

In parallel, we’re supporting a diverse cohort—including a women’s approved premises, an environmental charity, an ethical funeral provider, a racial justice project and a refugee support organisation—to explore what social value looks like in their contexts. As part of this, we’ve purchased a membership to Impact, a social value calculator, to provide each member with a robust valuation. The work is already fostering closer partnerships.

Together, these strands are building a more informed, reflective and confident network—better able to evidence change and shape future strategy.

Communications & Storytelling

Communications & Storytelling

This year we produced nine Network of Kindness newsletters sharing news, events, stories and resources to support social action by our members and the wider community.

Our mailing list includes more than 800 subscribers. On social media we have almost 1,000 followers on Facebook and are growing new audiences on Instagram and BlueSky.

We have commissioned a new website, due to launch in the summer of 2025, to improve user experience, simplify navigation and surface key resources, community support initiatives and updates. The site strengthens Together Liverpool’s identity as a lead organisation for community social action across the Diocese of Liverpool and improves the visibility of our team and trustees.

To amplify real-life impact we on track to deliver eighteen stories video-led Stories of Kindness, highlighting grassroots action by Network of Kindness members over the next two-and-a-half years, deepening relationships and inspiring collaboration.

“It's good to read and hear about what's going on across the city and region and be provided with opportunities for funding and training.” - Network of Kindness member

Charity Consultancy

In spring 2024 Micah Liverpool asked Together Liverpool to provide interim support while they recruited a new CEO. Our CEO was seconded to Micah for two days a week to strengthen financial management, fundraising and staffing, while developing project delivery. The consultancy fee backfilled capacity in our team so Together Liverpool’s programme could continue as planned.

Working alongside trustees and senior staff, we helped redesign Micah’s staff structure for greater financial stability, introduced improved financial processes and controls, and supported targeted fundraising. The restructuring and other cost-saving measures delivered approximately £50,000 in annual savings, and a further £67,000 of income was secured.

Volunteer engagement and training were also strengthened. A new volunteer forum was established to brief volunteers on service changes and staffing updates, and to provide a channel for feedback.

By the end of the consultancy the restructure was complete and a refreshed staff team was taking shape. Micah left the process with clearer roles, tighter financial oversight and an immediate improvement in sustainability—better positioned to serve communities when the new CEO takes post in 2025.

Goals for Charity Development for 2025

During 2025, Together Liverpool will seek to continue the development of our work by:

Financial Review

The operational surplus on the general fund during the year £60,717 (£33,421: 2023)

As at 31 December 2024 total unrestricted funds of £34,243 were held.

Risk Management

The trustees are developing an ongoing risk management strategy which comprises:

Financial sustainability continues to be a major risk. A key element in the management of financial risk is a regular review of available liquid funds to settle debts as they fall due, regular liaison with the bank and active management of trade debtors and creditors balances to ensure sufficient working capital by the charity.

The charity follows the staffing, health and safety, safeguarding, financial and all other guidance, policies and procedures outlined by its two partner organisations: the Diocese of Liverpool and Church Urban Fund.

Reserves policy

The charity’s reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £79,893 . The trustees have adopted a policy to retain sufficient funds to enable the smooth running of the charity and to enable an orderly winding up should that become necessary. The policy is reviewed regularly. The level of reserves to be maintained is 6 months of future budgeted core costs. Our working budget forecast our reserves to be £58,807 for 2024.

The year-end position is adequate for the revised level of activity and proposed staffing recruitment for 2025.

Statement of Directors' responsibilities

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial accounts for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Examiner's report to the trustees of Together Liverpool

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2024 set out on pages 13 to 22

Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

q examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;

q to follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and

q state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of Independent examiner's statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:

q to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and

q to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities

have not been met; or

2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

3 Transactions with trustees and related parties

No trustees received any remuneration or expenses during the accounting period.

Owing to the nature of the charity's activities and the composition of the board of trustees (being drawn from local statutory and voluntary organisation), it is inevitable that transactions will take place with organisations in which a trustee may have an interest. All transactions in which a trustee may have an interest are conducted at arm's length and in accordance with the charity's financial regulations and expenditure procedures. No transactions were indentified which should be disclosed under FRS 102.
