A targeted grant programme – the Argyle Quarter Commercial Property Improvement Grant Scheme – has awarded 10 Birkenhead businesses funding toward shop front improvements.
Over 30 young entrepreneurs and performers will be showcasing their talent next Saturday 7th December at the latest Wirral Youth Market event, where shoppers will be able to shop local as well as enjoying a host of free festive family activities.
Wirral’s year as the Liverpool City Region Borough of Culture draws to a close with nine local community organisations set to receive funding to create a lasting legacy to the programme.
A vacant office building in Birkenhead is being transformed in to a dynamic home for up to 100 ‘makers’ and artists after Town Deal investment. The new creative hub will be a major boost to the town’s expanding creative scene.
Wirral Council's Leader, Cllr Paul Stuart, has welcomed the decision by a planning inspector to back the authority's decision to refuse plans to build on part of the borough's green belt.
Birkenhead is undergoing significant transformation with more than £100 million of Government funding secured by Wirral Council to support it.
And as the New Year gets going a major programme of events is now underway to allow people to have their say about changes to the town.
