Play Groups

Children learn to share and communicate with one another and at the same time develop their fine and gross motor skills, language, cognitive and social skills through the various experiences that are programmed for them each week.

After School Programs

We provide the children with something to eat, help them with their homework and finish off with craft and educational games. We also enjoy outside play on the equipment.

Women’s Group

Women get together to offer support to each other here. They not only have meetings but also participate in craft projects, swapping ideas and continuing to encourage each other.

Supported Grandparents and Carers

These groups are for the seniors in our community to help reduce social isolation and to give them a safe environment to meet in where they can socialise with people of a similar age and circumstance. They regularly meet each week and enjoy monthly meetings, speakers and assorted activities.

From playgroups to seniors’ programs, crafts, health and fitness, together we’re better.

 

Childcare

Our children’s services focus on providing quality childcare to support families and carers in Liverpool who are financially or geographically disadvantaged. Pied Piper Mobile Childcare supports children 0-5 years.

 

Place-based Philanthropy

‘Place-based philanthropy’ means social investment in a geographic area. This location-focused giving seeks to bring together resources needed by the community to support the changes they wish to achieve.

Our program delivers change in Liverpool by bringing together partners to work with our local community in a creative and effective way. 

The outcomes are growth in self-esteem and confidence for individuals, capacity building for people one-by-one and for the organisations that help them.

Business Incubator

Since 2014, Liverpool Neighbourhood Connections’ micro business incubator has successfully developed 32 small businesses ideas for women from the Liverpool area. 

These women are now in a position to take their businesses further by selling their products online, at markets and in The Rising Collective Boutique.
