Our thoughts are with all affected by the shocking events in Southport yesterday, particularly with the families of those involved and the emergency services. Merseyside Police are working hard to investigate what happened – it’s vitally important not to speculate at this time.

About us
Bringing together Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens and Wirral to provide strategic governance and support economic growth. Working With Us We’re looking for people with the passion to deliver on our vision and help us to create a truly global and competitive city region which works for everyone. Devolution brings real powers to make policy and investment decisions that suit our own needs. We have a historic opportunity right now, with our city region growing faster than any other combined authority area, huge investment in infrastructure, and an unrivalled quality of life, with excellent cultural and leisure opportunities and affordable living costs. Yet, like all post-industrial cities, we need to work hard to ensure the benefits of growth reach everyone who lives and works here. We will invest more than £500m in the next four years, in projects which create social value and support our inclusive economy agenda, across transport, housing, skills and adult education, the social economy, business growth, innovation, land and property. Where else could you be working on projects as diverse as a £460 million investment to introduce a brand new fleet of state-of-the-art trains, a new approach to tackling homelessness, or an ambitious plan to harness the tidal power of the River Mersey and Liverpool Bay to create plentiful, predictable, renewable electricity? If you think that sounds exciting, you’re right, and we want to hear from you.

Northern mayors and council leaders have held a Summit in York to agree a new partnership to unlock economic growth for the benefit of northerners and the UK at large. Building on the Manifesto for the North, the new partnership will focus on those areas where pan-northern collaboration can make the biggest difference to the economy and people’s lives: trade and investment, net zero, people and place, innovation and transport. As an immediate example of this partnership-working in action, a new One Creative North initiative has been announced, aimed at growing the North’s creative and cultural industries.

🅿️Cllr Graham Morgan, Leader of Knowsley Council, and @SteveRotheram, Mayor of the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority visited the refurbished multi-storey car park in Kirkby to see the transformation of the key site in Kirkby Town Centre. ✅The Council secured £2.2m of funding from the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority to pay for a range of improvement and conversion works, including: a complete overhaul of all eight levels, providing long stay, short stay, and accessible bays, electric charging points, cycle storage, CCTV and sensor-controlled lighting. 📈The investment has been used to support employment in the local area with the transformation of the car park helping to secure new tenants in the adjacent building, Central House (the former Barclaycard building). 💬Councillor Graham Morgan, Leader of Knowsley Council said: “We knew that Central House was likely to remain empty unless we did something to address the condition of the adjacent car park, so I’m delighted that we have been able to transform this prime site in Kirkby Town Centre and that we are already welcoming additional workers and visitors into Kirkby as a direct result.” 💬Steve Rotheram, Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, added “This project is another example of how Combined Authority investment is helping to breathe new life into Kirkby town centre, supporting local businesses and creating jobs for local people.” 🔗 https://orlo.uk/BUfAH
