With its aim to deliver sustainable and long-term change for communities in areas of high need and deprivation across the Liverpool City Region (LCR), the Liverpool FC Foundation began working with Substance in 2020 to demonstrate its progress in achieving these goals.

In the period since, the Foundation has been supported to make a series of incremental changes to better define, monitor, assess and report on the impact and value of its work.

That is reflected in its ability to provide a fuller account of a growing range of programmes and related impact and value over the following three years including a valuation of the Foundation’s social impact at £88.75m in the 2022/23 season.
