One of the team behind the hugely successful Camp and Furnace venue in Liverpool is to help curate the food and drink venues at the new Beacon Arts Village in Hoylake.

The first phase of work to transform the historic Hoylake Town Hall into a major visitor destination has begun.

The Beacon Arts Village in the former Hoylake Town Hall is set to be completed by the end of 2020.

A plan to turn the former town hall in Hoylake into an arts and cultural hub including a cinema, retail units and office space has secured Government funding of more than £3.5 million.

The curtain is going up in the latest stage of the reinvention of the old Hoylake Town Hall as an arts and cultural hub.

We most enjoy shining a spotlight on the inspirational people and organisations that are passionate about improving our part of the world – here are our favourites.
