The Irish may say that the four leaf clover is lucky, but at tonight's Community Mission, 3 was the magic number!
We've supported Liverpool Irish Centre numerous times over the last 2.5 years and are keen to promote the great work they do. As a centre for Irish culture in Liverpool, they offer language, music and dance classes. But the centre isn't just for Irish people, it is for everyone. That was the message we tried to convey to the centre's neighbours this evening.
Our small but mighty team of Matthew, Jo and I hit the suburban streets of North Liverpool as the sun went down and a threat of rain hung in the air (but luckily never materialised). After 40 minutes and 200 leaflets delivered we called it a night.
Well done that team!

The Liverpool Irish Centre is a community and social hub at the heart of the Irish community on Merseyside. Originally situated at 127 Mount Pleasant, we moved to our current location in 1999. Our mission is to promote Irish Heritage & Culture, provide a space for this to happen, and support members of the Irish Community in doing so. Not only that, we serve the wider community too and seek to bring people from all backgrounds together. The Centre serves the thriving Irish and local community, supporting a range of groups from Irish dancing, music and language to mental health awareness and well-being. The Centre promotes culture, heritage and creativity through plays, pantomimes, reading groups and partnerships with local writers and writing groups. We're keen to support the communities of Liverpool — the place that opened its door for the Irish in their time of need. We partner with local groups and communities, offer opportunities to local people and support local businesses.
