WHO WE ARE
Here at Wake up Wallasey, we are driven by a single goal; to do our part in making the world a better place for all. We believe that everybody should have the opportunity to shape their future and play a part in improving our community. We seek to inspire, to create opportunities and to draw our community closer together. We believe that together we can make a positive impact on our community while sharing our faith and God's love with those around us.
Wallasey is an amazing place to live with some fantastic people but parts of Wallasey, particularly the area around Seacombe where we are based, are very deprived and there are a lot of social problems. Find out more here.
Our aim is to help the community to help itself by facilitating projects and activities within our community and by bringing people together. We are involved in projects in the area including:
-
We have a social supermarket operating out of St. Paul's Church in Seacombe. This provides local people with food at affordable prices especially families struggling on a tight budget. There is no need to be on benefits, all welcome. Pay what you can afford.
-
Every Thursday morning (9.30am) there is a walk along the prom starting from St. Paul's church. This is a great way to get some exercise and meet new people. You will also get entered for the prize draw if you join us.
-
We were also involved in the singing cafe at St. Luke's Church in Poulton which runs on Tuesdays (10.30 - 12 noon). Just turn up (no charge) to sing songs from the 50's to the 80's. No musical ability required, its just for fun. Free tea and coffee. Every other Tuesday (closed over summer).
-
Events and holiday clubs - Wake up Wallasey organises other events and activities in the community including most recently a kid's holiday club.
-
Pint of Praise - back on at The Ferry Pub, Tobin street (downstairs bit). Have a meal and/or a pint and join us for some singing and a short talk from 7.30pm. Next date to be confirmed
