Merseyside Jewish Community Care is putting £13,500 in grants towards new educational services and outings.

The 125-year-old organisation has received £12,500 for well-being activities from Liverpool Primary Care Trust and £1,000 for training from Vola, the Voluntary Organisation Learning Association.

Last year, MJCC helped 273 people and was contacted by a further 154 among the 3,000-strong community. It has over 250 volunteers.

A recent addition to its activities is appointments for clients with a Citizens Advice Bureau officer for half-a-day every week. The first session was fully booked.
