​Merseyside Expanding Horizons 

Established in 1998, MEH is an Industrial and Provident Society that came into being as a direct result of partnership working. MEH was created when a partnership of organisations came together, having determined the need for a specialist infrastructure body to support the inclusion agenda and to administer government funding programmes to achieve positive outcomes for voluntary and community organisations active in this field across Merseyside.

The activity of MEH is underpinned by four core values that determine and inform how MEH undertakes the work that it does.
​Our core values are:
INCLUSION - we recognise that everyone has something to contribute, embracing people and their potential.
INTEGRITY - we are trustworthy and competent so that people have justifiable confidence in us.
INSPIRATION - we lead, empower, and enable people to break new ground, pioneering improvement in social inclusion
COLLABORATION - we build on everyone's strengths and engage in open dialogue in pursuit of positive social change
MEH is skilled at bringing together Merseyside based voluntary, private and public sector agencies to promote and generate multi agency and cross sector working around key issues relevant to social inclusion, gender equality and diversity. The specialist expertise in different areas of exclusion held by the diverse organisations involved in MEH continues to be a major strength of each and every partnership.
