Our Impact 2022/23

LFC Foundation is the official charity of Liverpool Football Club.

Red Neighbours is Liverpool Football Club’s local corporate social responsibility team which offers targeted support around its football homes in Anfield and Kirkby.

By harnessing the power and passion of Liverpool Football Club’s fans and stakeholders, we aim to improve the lives of the most disadvantaged both home and away.

Our delivered activity is categorised in to seven areas:

Sport & Physical Activity
Health & Wellbeing
Education & Life Skills
Employment & Training
Youth Interventions
Community Engagement
Inclusion

We have commissioned Substance as an independent body to help build skills and abilities to define, monitor, assess and report on the impact of our work and that of our partners.

Across all of our activities we supported 123,000 people last season, with nearly 81,000 unique participants

“My son really enjoys taking part and the coaches are so welcoming and friendly. They do a brilliant job every week.”
