Manifesto for Hope

Wirral churches are invited to discuss how faith communities, civic leaders, and local partners can work for justice, compassion and the common good in the Liverpool City Region.
Churches and residents on the Wirral, part of the Liverpool City Region, are invited to take part in an online session exploring the vision and practical impact of the Manifesto for Hope which Bishop Julie, the Bishop of Birkenhead helped launch with other faith leaders, in November 2025.
The sessions will be led by James Green, CEO of Together Liverpool, and Fran D’Arcy, Faith in the City Lead Development Officer with Churches Together in the Merseyside Region and Together Liverpool.
Each session will:
Revisit the core themes and commitments of the Manifesto
Explore how faith and civic leaders can collaborate to shape public life for the good of our communities
Create space for discussion, questions, and shared learning
These conversations are open to anyone who cares about the future of our city region – including faith leaders, community organisers, policymakers, and local residents.
Session dates
Session one: Tuesday 17 March 2026, 10am – 11am
Session two: Tuesday 31 March 2026, 2.30pm – 3.30pm
Both sessions will take place on Zoom, and you are welcome to attend whichever works best for you.
Please register via Eventbrite and share this invitation with others across Liverpool, Halton, Sefton, Knowsley, Wirral, and St Helens.
Together, we can continue building a more just and compassionate Liverpool City Region by turning the Manifesto’s commitments into practical action.
