Liverpool FC Foundation – Onside

The Liverpool FC Foundation’s ‘Onside’ Project is delivered by the Foundation mentors and coaches in both The De La Salle Academy in Croxteth and North Liverpool Academy in Anfield.

The LFC Foundation staff use the power of the LFC badge to engage with students and provide them with key skills, confidence and the resilience needed to overcome obstacles and choose the right pathways in life.

LFC Foundation and Merseyside Police have joined forces to help address the issues around youth and gang crime in conjunction with schools in Merseyside. The three-year project is equally funded by LFC Foundation and Merseyside Police.

The Foundation has contributed £150,000 from money raised from LFC Legends charity games, which has been match-funded through the Merseyside Police Community Cash Back Fund.

Merseyside Police’s Community Cash Back Fund utilises money obtained through the Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA). They are using the money to support specific community projects and operations, crime reduction initiatives and promote diversionary activities.
