We continue to reach more people in need

As we are fast approaching the Christmas holidays, a time for reflection as well as joy and celebration, I would like to take this time to look back at 2022 and the fantastic accomplishments our colleagues and volunteers at Nugent have achieved.

During 2022, a number of our services and our school had their Ofsted inspections; all of our services are rated good, and I couldn’t be prouder of our staff who give so much of themselves for the people and communities that we serve.

Throughout the year, we have also held a number of fundraising events that all proved to be successful, including Sleep Out with Nugent, the 16th Phil Thompson’s Golf Classic, and more recently, our inaugural Nugent Gala. All of the funds raised from our challenges and events support the most vulnerable in our communities, as we continue to reach more people in need across Merseyside and beyond.

At Nugent, we love our beneficiaries fiercely and we remain united by a common culture of integrity, ambition, courage, compassion, optimism, respect and dignity. It is these values in combination with our dedication to the children, young people, adults and families we serve that holds us together.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish all of our friends and supporters, a most wonderful Christmas and a prosperous New Year; 2023 will see Nugent continue to care, educate, protect and inspire those in need.
