Liberty for All—Community Interest Company (CIC)

Liberty CIC is a not-for-profit organisation which aims to help and support young people to overcome the variety of boundaries or obstacles they might face.

Local Projects

Liberty CIC has access to various funding sources which allow our Learners to access grants to help them with their journey towards employment.

These grants can be authorised for the following uses:

  • Additional qualifications such as CSCS cards
  • Equipment for work such as personal protective equipment and uniform
  • Mobile phone, passports or driving licences
  • Other items to assist with employment

Liberty CIC also has its own trading arm which helps to generate further funds to support our learners. Additional grants can be agreed by the Board of Directors of Liberty once other sources of funding have been depleted.

 

International Projects

In 2025, Liberty College began working in partnership with The Pumba Foundation, supporting the Seven Fountains community in Africa  to improve life outcomes for the people who live there. 

In December 2025, our young people created gift boxes to send to this community so that the children would receive a present at Christmas. We included hygiene items such as sponges, soap and toothbrushes, as well as books, stationary, toys and sweets for each child. Our learners selected the items, chose the child who would receive the box, wrapped and decorated them, and helped prepare them for delivery to Africa. Many of these children are unable to meet even their basic needs, let alone receive gifts.

This project was incredibly beneficial for our learners because it allowed them to give back and support others. At Liberty, we strongly believe that acts of service help enhance well-being and improve mental health, and that supporting others is a fundamental part of life that everyone should experience. It also helped our young people—some of whom consider themselves to be living in poverty in the UK—gain a perspective on what real poverty looks like. Although UK children may struggle financially, we still have running water, electricity, heating and access to clothing. There is much that we take for granted, and this project helped teach our young people gratitude and understanding of others.

In 2025, we funded the university education of a young person in Africa who could not afford the fees but has a brilliant mind. We plan to expand this programme to support more academically gifted young people who would otherwise be unable to access higher education. By supporting these young people within their communities, they can go on to create a better future for themselves and their families.

The young woman we supported last year aspires to work in law and politics, with the aim of improving her country and her local and national community. It is by lifting individuals within these communities that entire communities can be strengthened and their long-term outcomes improved.
