HARTHILL YOUTH CENTRE
Operating a youth centre and related activities, to help and educate young people, especially those aged 14-20 years who live in the Wavertree & Sefton Park areas of Liverpool, through their leisure-time activities, to develop their physical, mental and spiritual capacities that they may grow to full maturity as individuals and members of society and that their conditions of life may be improved.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity holds nil unrestricted reserves due to a lack of funds. While the trustees report a more stable position following a five-year grant from Liverpool City Council, they note continued uncertainty regarding central government funding for non-statutory youth work. The principal risk identified is a lack of funding, which leaves the charity vulnerable to shocks despite its ability to continue delivering quality work.
