Our overall aims and objectives of the charity
Apex Trust is a place where all individuals have an opportunity to turn their lives around, to improve society and strengthen communities. To achieve this, we will continue to offer career, training and vocational advice & guidance for people whose actions or behaviours have led to negative consequences for themselves and others enabling them to make positive choices and turn their lives around and to lead happy, fulfilling lives.
We have delivered services within the community of St Helens, Merseyside since 1996.
The core part of our services are our specialist advice & guidance support projects to offenders and those at risk offending within the community. We support individuals within the community break down the barriers they face by having a criminal record or are at risk of offending, to enable them to be in a stronger position to gain employment, training, education or voluntary work.

Plan Bee is our community coffee shop which launched in January 2020. We are a fully trading coffee shop which has a staff team and volunteers (who are at risk of offending or have a criminal record). Plan Bee enables volunteers to train with us and gain skills and knowledge which will give them experience required within the hospitality sector within a café, coffee shop, restaurant etc. Volunteers follow a 5-step programme where the advice & guidance staff will support them to gain employment.
