We are Liverpool City Region’s professional community. We come together to learn, connect and grow so that we can contribute to a shared vision:

A thriving economic future for the Liverpool City Region. One with a more balanced contribution from different sectors and greater opportunities for people to stay and develop their careers.

As an organisation, we do that in three ways:

1. Membership - Our mission is to connect and inspire the community in ways that create value for them and our city region. We provide a number of events, content, shared best practices, introductions and support that bring professionals together and help them to achieve their goals as individuals and businesses.
2. Influence - It’s vitally important that we use our collective might to bring about positive change. We engage LCR Combined Authority, LEP/Growth Platform, and Local Authorities across LCR to identify ways we can contribute to their activities and give the professional community a voice.
3. Education - There is an important leadership and advocacy role to play to make sure that talent from the schools and higher education establishments is developed and retained within the LCR professional community. We want Liverpool and its surrounding areas to be a place where people see opportunities to develop successful careers.

We also recognise the importance of doing things the right way and have outlined three organisational priorities for the immediate future:

• Equality, Diversity & Inclusion
• Transparency & Teamwork
• Fairness and Trust

“I am part of a local network who support one another. I am only a phone call away from a new introduction.”

That quote is from one of our members and it sums up the experience of being part of Liverpool’s professional community.

Relationships are the foundation for everything we do and the progress we make, and we believe that being friendly, approachable and relaxed is the best way to build them.

LCR is brimming with qualified professionals, from accountants, stockbrokers and solicitors to architects, media and digital professionals and surveyors. All of whom contribute to the success of the local economy. Whether facilitated by the organisation or the members themselves, we believe the relationships that are built across the community can create meaningful and lasting change.

For the community, led by the community.

The organisation’s board is made up of experienced and influential professionals from LCR’s thriving business community. They come together to represent community members, identify ways to deliver against organisational priorities and keep us focused on achieving our collective vision.
