Later this week, councillors at a Wirral Council policy and resources committee will take a number of decisions that will see its plans for Liscard become part of its wider investment plan for Birkenhead and Wallasey. These plans hope to see millions go towards regenerating Birkenhead, Liscard, and New Ferry.
The second project will look to create a new community hub which at the time of the bid made in July 2022 involved demolishing and replacing the derelict Liscard Community Facilities Complex on Egerton Grove just outside the town centre. When the ECHO spoke to people about what they wanted to see, several called for a new community hub in the town.
The council said it could be run by a local community organisation with different support, health and well-being activities as well as meeting rooms, offices, play areas, sports and arts facilities, and potentially a community café.
