The Reserve Forces and Cadets Association for The North West of England and Isle of Man is responsible for promoting the Volunteer Reserve Forces of all three Armed Services within the community through liaison with local authorities, employers, trade unions, the media and other influential groups. In addition to recruiting and publicity for the TA and the ACF, NW RFCA is also responsible for the Volunteer Estate comprising some 270 properties including the RN Headquarters, 41 TA Centres and the cadet huts belonging to the ACF and the ATC. It is also responsible for the Altcar Training Camp at Hightown, north of Liverpool. The Association's other tasks include employer support and the provision of welfare support to both reservists and their families.

NW RFCA provides a link between the Armed Forces in the North West and local communities by raising the awareness of the benefits and skills to be gained through volunteer service. Its Headquarters is situated at Alexandra Court, 28 Alexandra Drive, Liverpool L17 8YE . Whilst the senior members of the staff are predominantly former members of the Regular Armed Forces, the majority of people working at the HQ are civilians with many years of loyal service and tremendous experience with the RFCA in the North West.
