The former principal of Wirral Met College, Sue Higginson OBE DL, was presented with Wirral’s highest honour – the Freedom of the Borough – at a civic event on Tuesday 27 February.
More than half of some 500 people who fled Ukraine and found refuge in Wirral remain in the borough in independent accommodation with a further 164 people still supported in the borough in family homes.
Video kiosks allowing Wirral residents to have online virtual appointments with council advisors are currently available at four locations across Wirral.
A balanced and legal budget which supports Wirral Council’s frontline services is set to be recommended to authority’s Policy and Resources (P&R) Committee when councillors meet on February 13.
A huge range of projects will be moving ahead in Wirral in 2024 as the borough pushes forward with its ambitious and transformative regeneration plans.
