Cured really is a theatre production like no other, and it’s on right now at Liverpool’s Royal Court! 🎭

This incredible show will leave you on the edge of your seat, and as Laurence Clark says, if you anticipate what’s about to happen next, then he hasn’t done his job as a writer correctly.

It’s on this weekend and all of next week, so be quick and go see it before it’s gone!

Cured is produced by Liverpool’s Royal Court in association with Birds of Paradise Theatre Company.

What makes this charity shop different from your usual charity shop? 👀

North West Cancer Research’s new charity shop in Formby feels like more of a curated experience. With a mix of pre-loved and new items all laid out in the style of a boutique store, you’re bound to find something you’ll love in here!

Shopping in one of NWCR’s charity shops directly supports the charity’s vital work in the fight against cancer across our local community.

Say hello to ReNew, the newest store in Liverpool’s Metquarter, specialising in restoring old and tired furniture! 🛋️😍

Not just that, but it also sells its own beautifully transformed chests, chairs, cabinets, mirrors and more. The team will even collect it from you and, when it’s ready, drop it back off FOR FREE!

ReNew opened in Metquarter in October last year, and since then it’s been a go-to for homeowners wanting to try out new trends, revamp their favourite spaces, and save fabulous furniture that’s just a bit tired from the skip.

We speak to owner Peter to find out more about the business! 👀
