Active 8 Support Services: Empowering Lives, Building Futures

In our vibrant and diverse city of Liverpool, we take great pride in nurturing a community where each individual feels supported, included, and valued. That's why we are delighted to shine a spotlight on an organisation that embodies these principles wholeheartedly: Active 8 Support Services

Established in May 2006, Active 8 embarked on a mission to provide essential support and accommodation for unaccompanied asylum-seeking children. Through a partnership with Liverpool Social Services, they extended a helping hand to those in need. Since then, their impact has grown exponentially, touching the lives of over 800 individuals from more than 15 countries.

At the core of Active 8's mission lies a dedication to delivering tailored, comprehensive support packages that address the unique needs of each individual and family they serve. From family contact services to short breaks for disabled children, their diverse range of offerings reflects a profound understanding of the challenges faced by vulnerable populations.

What truly distinguishes Active 8 is their unwavering commitment to the well-being and inclusion of their service users. Through a culturally sensitive, holistic approach, they prioritise the safety, integration, and empowerment of young people as they navigate the intricacies of life in a new community.

As members of the WIOC community, we recognise the importance of rallying together to assist those in need. Whether you're a player, supporter, spectator, or have family members seeking support, we urge you to reach out to Active 8. Their team of qualified social workers and multilingual staff stand ready to offer accommodation, administrative support, and pastoral care to those who require it most.

In a world where diversity is celebrated and every voice matters, Active 8 epitomises the spirit of inclusivity and compassion that defines our community. Let us unite in our efforts to cultivate a stronger, more supportive community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
