A huge congratulations to Racheal Jones, a valued VS6 partner and CEO of One Knowsley, who was named Community Leader at the Merseyside Women of the Year Awards 2025.
Racheal has spent over 25 years fighting for communities to be heard, helping grow partnerships, influence decisions, and bring more investment into community-led work in Knowsley, at a regional Cheshire and Merseyside level and beyond.
Racheal has played a pivotal role in bringing VCFSE perspectives into public service design and delivery and continues to champion underrepresented groups. Currently sitting on the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority “Office for Public Service Innovation”, as well as the VCFSE representative for Merseyside on the Cheshire and Merseyside Health and Care Partnership, Racheal is committed to advocating for community involvement in service design and delivery.
Congrats again to Racheal and to all this year’s finalists and winners. A fantastic celebration of women making a difference across our region.
