Sharon Munroe

Equilibrium Northwest CIC
Inspirational Woman – Winner

Sharon is the founder of Equilibrium North West CIC and the heart of Livingstone Street Community Centre in Birkenhead — the very centre she visited as a child looking for food. Having experienced poverty, domestic violence and inequality first-hand, Sharon turned those lived experiences into purpose. She built Equilibrium from a single coffee morning into a Family Hub-accredited community centre. In five years, Sharon and her team have served thousands of free meals, provided thousands of shopping reprieve packs, run holiday clubs for up to 100 children a day, and welcomed 12,000 people through their doors with an extensive weekly program of activities for all ages, stages and abilities.
