Woolton has been named the Best Place to Live in the North West by The Sunday Times 🤩
Some of the things the judges highlighted about Woolton was walkability, its historic connection to The Beatles, and its vibrant village centre.
The Sunday Times judges said:
“Everything is within walking distance in the Liverpool suburb where Lennon and McCartney met for the first time. Its independent-minded village centre has cool coffee shops, a formidable fromagerie, and cocktail bars, as well as a belting neighbourhood boozer in the Elephant Pub and Bakehouse. It’s a gloriously family-friendly place to put down roots, with excellent schools, parks, and even a patch of woodland.”
We spoke to some locals to find out why they love living or working around Woolton.

Liverpool is officially one of the safest cities in the world for a night out, thanks to its Purple Flag status. 🌃
Jay met John Hughes from Liverpool Nightlife CIC to find out more and to hear about some of the measures in place which are actively keeping people safe during their night out in the city.
Last month it was announced that Liverpool has kept its Purple Flag status, marking the 15th year in a row that the city has been recognised for its safe and thriving night-time economy.
Purple Flag Status highlights the Liverpool’s commitment to being one of the UK’s safest night-time economies, where residents and visitors can enjoy a secure and vibrant nightlife experience. It is one of only a handful of cities that has retained the status since 2010.
Run by the Association of Town and City Management (ATCM), the Purple Flag scheme recognises places that have a dynamic, secure, and vibrant evening and night-time economy, similar to a Green Flag for parks, or Blue Flag for beaches.
The prestigious award highlights Liverpool’s diverse range of entertainment, dining and culture throughout the night, as well as its commitment to the welfare and safety of visitors and residents.
