Dingle Multi Agency Centre Ltd (DMAC Ltd) is the charitable company that owns and manages Toxteth Town Hall Community Resource Centre.
The board of Trustees are responsible for both the day to day smooth running and operation of the centre and, the strategic development of the charity, its facilities and services.
The charity employs a fantastic staff and volunteer team to assist them in achieving this.
Our charity runs a variety of facilities and services as follows:
i) Provides accessible rooms/offices under licence agreements to community, charitable groups/orgs and social enterprises. For current list of Centre Based Organisations (CBO's) see CBO menu and for availability of office space, please see Facilities.
ii) Provides capacity building to both internal and external groups within Liverpool 8 and further afield. This is provided on 3 levels:
