This regional charity connects local businesses with community groups and school to create amazing experiences for all.

The Big Trust is a Liverpool City Region based charity with big ambitions. The main focus is on supporting people of all ages from disadvantaged backgrounds to find sustainable jobs, training and enrichment opportunities while providing businesses the opportunity to be engaged in TBT cause.

The Big Trust vision states: “By working together to enable each of us to achieve what we are capable of we will support thriving communities, successful businesses and empowered individuals.”

The Big Trust is currently working with the likes of Merseyrail, Liverpool John Lennon Airport, Willmott Dixon, Veolia, Marks & Spencer, Amion Consulting, Regenda Homes, Walton Flooring, Torus, Hope Street Hotel, Hilton Liverpool and many more to provide adults with work placement opportunities. Already these important connections have resulted in employment for those attending The Big Trust Ready For Work programme.

With a view to work with more businesses, big and small across the Merseyside region, The Big Trust will be able to connect more communities with potentially life-changing opportunities. The impact of this can be seen in the enriching activities St Christopher’s and St Monica’ Primary School’s have recently enjoyed.

Working together with Liverpool John Lennon Airport, Merseyrail, Marks & Spencer, Morgan Sindall and many more has given the children the opportunity to learn about the different job roles within the businesses which will enable them to enhance their own life chances, by driving their aspirations and creating relevant learning platforms

Inspiring the next generation with hands on activities and information about the wealth of career opportunities they have on their own doorstep here in Liverpool is proving to be a big hit.
