As the political parties return from their annual conferences across the country, we, the citizens of Liverpool City-Region, will be taking stock. We will be deciding how we can best work together for the sake of our most vulnerable fellow citizens, for the future of our children and young people, for decent jobs, housing, our health and well-being and for a peaceful and sustainable world.
Compass (Merseyside) invites you to join us from across the city region – citizens, campaigners, political activists, church groups, food-banks, community and voluntary organisations, trade-unions and businesses – to assess the challenge, outline the opportunities, strengthen our solidarity and agree priorities for action based on our common values.
Keynote speakers:
- Theresa Griffin (MEP)
- Cllr Frank Hont (Cabinet Member for Housing, L’pool City Council)
- Hannah Walkom – Young Greens (L’pool)
