Welcome
What we do
Welcome to our website where you can find out about our services and how to access them or support us.
Apex Trust is a local (St Helens, Merseyside) charity which offers Advice and Guidance to people whose actions or behaviours have led to negative consequences for themselves and/or others. We enable them to make positive choices and achieve personal goals. Our vision is of a place where all individuals have an opportunity to turn their lives around to improve society and strengthen communities.
There is no other service which supports ex/offenders in the community as we do.
Our aim is to support people within the community to move away from a lifestyle that may encourage offending or re-offending. This in turn strengthens communities, reduces crime, promotes social inclusion and enables the formulation of stronger family relationships.
We can support our service users to overcome their individual barriers to change. This can move them away from dependency on welfare and crime to becoming self-sustaining members of communities. We promote social inclusion for people who have a history of offending by assisting them to improve their prospects. We aim to help people with a criminal record age 18+ to overcome individual and personal barriers by providing a range of specialist and proven 1 -1 support programmes.
90% of people we help have multiple problems with complex needs arising from poverty, traumatic life events, mental health problems, drug and alcohol related needs and lack of support networks.
