sPark It Liverpool is a joint venture from a number of organisations in the city. For the purposes of this application, Transition Liverpool are the main stakeholder. Partner organisations include:

Transition Liverpool - Part of the Transition Towns Global Network, we aim to foster creativity and imagination, empowering people to move towards a zero-carbon, sustainable and healthy future. We function in Liverpool as a network facilitator, bringing together social good organisations to implement effective change.

Our key focus in the coming 12 months is to support the development of a strong, engaged and vibrant community, a solidarity economy that supports the people of the city and nurtures new ideas and innovations. We see the challenges presented by pandemic, climate change and other issues, as opportunities to learn, reflect, and build a resilient and sustainable world.

Faiths4Change - An environmental charity rooted in the values and beliefs around the environment that are shared across all faiths. Our work is with and beyond faith communities, and with people who do not have religious beliefs.

Our work is practical and utilises the need for sustainable socially just and environmental action as a means to bring people together; often in communities that are experiencing considerable change and challenges. We work to build inclusive relationships, deepen connections, develop and share skills, and ultimately transform neighbourhoods so that people and the environment flourish.

Baltic Triangle Area CiC - Baltic Triangle Area CIC (BTA CIC) was created to represent and advocate on behalf of the stakeholders, the tenants, residents and customers of the Baltic Triangle.

BTA CIC works on everything from lobbying the city council, to facilitating public art and green spaces, supporting businesses, to creating opportunities for people to meet and network.
