To celebrate the start of the New Year, Elevate Education Business Partnership (EBP) is proud to announce our list of 2026 Patrons. This year, over 150 businesses and organisations from across the Liverpool City Region and beyond have been awarded Elevate EBP 2026 Patron Status, recognising their outstanding commitment to supporting local young people and strengthening careers education and enrichment through their work with us.

Our 2026 Patrons represent a diverse and dedicated group of employers and organisations who share our mission to ‘Transform Lives and Create Growth’. Over the past year, they have gone above and beyond consistently to work with us and deliver high-quality careers support for young people of all ages and backgrounds.

Together, we have created meaningful opportunities that help young people explore opportunities, understand the world of work, and develop the skills and confidence needed to succeed. Our Patrons have demonstrated their commitment in a variety of ways, including corporate volunteering and the provision of in-kind support that has enhanced our delivery across the region.

The impact of this collective effort has been significant and can be read about in our 2025 Impact Report. Our 2026 Patron list is made up of organisations nominated by members of the Elevate EBP team in recognition of their exceptional support and impact, and those who supported the largest number of our events and initiatives throughout 2025.

“We are incredibly grateful to our 2026 Patrons. Each of them has gone above and beyond to support young people across the Liverpool City Region, helping them to explore career paths and enrichment opportunities, develop essential skills and build confidence for the future. Their dedication is making a lasting impact, and we’re proud to celebrate their achievements!”

Gill Ditchburn, CEO at Elevate EBP
