MP praises police operation to stop 1,000-strong "rave" on Formby beach

During scorching hot weather on Wednesday and Thursday last week, an estimated 10,000 people descended on the Sefton coast each day, and there were social media posts advertising a rave on Wednesday afternoon. Police deployed extra officers and a helicopter to locate the group and confiscate speakers, a generator and a mixing deck worth £10,000.

Bill Esterson's response regarding recent parking and litter issues in Formby

I have been liaising closely with the National Trust, urging them to work on solutions to the many issues that have arisen, not just over the last few weeks, but over the previous few years, relating to the large numbers of visitors attracted to the site, especially on hot sunny days. The National Trust have provided me with the following information: We’re actively investigating o

We have been genuinely touched by the sup

St Joseph's Hospice says thank you to 200 volunteers

This week is Volunteers’ Week and even though events have been cancelled up and down the country, due to coronavirus, St. Joseph’s Hospice didn’t want to let this week slip by without saying a really big thank you to its incredible team of volunteers.
