Our appeal is to restore our city centre building to continue supporting Merseyside’s children, young people, and families. This will support the ever-increasing demand of mental health services, enabling quicker access and less waiting times.
Co-designed with young people and families; the restoration will provide a fully accessible modern building with a new lift, more rooms, bigger group areas, completely equipped with dedicated play, and creative therapy spaces and youth work facilities. In addition, the restored building will support the ever-increasing demand of mental health services, allowing for quicker access and less waiting times.
