Merseyside Police has launched its annual Christmas campaign to protect local communities. ๐ŸŽ„

The public will see plenty of officers from neighbourhood policing teams out at busy spots across Merseyside. Officers will be sharing useful crime prevention advice and encouraging members of the public to become a โ€˜Christmas Crime Crackerโ€™ by taking simple security measures to protect their possessions, such as security marking valuable items โ€“ a proven method to deter thieves and help recover stolen property.

We spoke to Chief Inspector Chris Bland to find out more.

The London Carriageworks has been serving up some of the best food in Liverpool for over twenty years.

Last week we visited for the first time in ages, and we were not disappointed. We chose from the A La Carte menu and both the service and the food were some of the best weโ€™ve experienced in Liverpool. ๐Ÿ‘Œ

Bold Street is about to get a whole lot tastier as boojum gets set to launch ๐Ÿ˜

Cult-favourite Mexican Burrito Bar boojum will open its doors on Bold Street in December. 

Jay went to Dublin to get a taste of what you can expect from the burrito-loving venue. 

Liverpoolโ€™s been on Boojumโ€™s wish list for years, and with the cityโ€™s strong Irish ties, it was only a matter of time. Fun fact: itโ€™s been the most requested spot outside of Ireland with die-hard Boojum fans taking to social media to voice their opinions, so itโ€™s safe to say Boojum listened and Liverpoolโ€™s about to level up its Mexican food scene.

The restaurant launches early December and we canโ€™t wait for you to tuck in too.
