The Life Works project offers training, volunteer opportunities and work experience to vulnerable people including ex-offenders and people suffering from mental health or addiction problems. The initiative provides a pathway to employment and increased social inclusion

The areas are weighted differently to reflect their relative importance.
Movement for Good is coordinated by insurance giant Ecclesiastical, which uses its profits to support good causes.
