Description

The Community Foundation for Merseyside helps individuals and organisations give to causes which matter to them, where there is most need, and where it will have greatest impact.  In 2024-25 it responded rapidly to unforeseen and tragic events within the community, supporting the voluntary sector there to support the community at its times of need.

Hear from Rae Brooke, CEO and James Proctor, Programmes Director about how the Foundation and wider community used their resources, quick-thinking and compassion to respond in such challenging times, and what learning they have taken to shape future services and responses.
