If you're looking to get out a bit more and do some new, fun things, joining Liverpool's biggest Discord server is a great start!

It doesn't matter if you're a Liverpool local, just moved here, old or young, or just happen to love our city from another country. You are welcome to come and say hi. There's 1,000 messages being sent every day.

We have channels dedicated to photography, movies, photography, fitness, sport, music, showing off your pets, and even a place you can post your Wordle scores if you want.

https://discord.gg/fNmcKC97nH

What's Discord?

Think of Discord like a big Whatsapp group. It's essentially the same thing. You don't need a microphone, just your phone/keyboard. All we ask is that you're over 18, and have a desire to make new mates in Liverpool. Pop in, say hello, and you choose how much you want to talk.

Who's in there?

We have members from Liverpool and further afield. You don't have to live in Liverpool to join the chat. The average age of people is about 28. Our server is different than most Discord servers because we have a genuine community of awesome people who come to stuff in person.

What won't happen

You join and inside 24 hours, you've got a whole new set of mates.

Contribute, come to a few fun things, talk to people in person, and over time, those friendships form. A lot of people get frustrated because they don't find a friend overnight but that's not how friends work. Be prepared to make the effort and people will make the effort with you.

Real life events, real life friends. Come have a go!

Looking for friends No pressure pints Liverpool

No Pressure Pints

We are a new group for guys aged 18-45, who meet up every other Thursday night. This Friday night we are meeting up for "no pressure pints" just an excuse for a chilled evening to get out of house and meet some new guys. We usually meet up every other Thursday night for some random activity and a catch-up afterwards.

Join us for a leisurely wander through some of Liverpool's best pubs (and probably a few side streets we didn't mean to go down). Think fewer shots, more chats, this is about good company, good pubs, and making new mates, not seeing who's still standing by pub four.

What to expect:

A relaxed pace — one drink, one chat, one pub, repeat

A route through some proper Liverpool gems, not just the obvious ones

Plenty of new faces and easy conversation

No pressure to keep up, keep drinking, or keep pace — wander off home whenever you like

Whether you're new to the city, bored midweek, or just fancy a sociable evening that isn't another night in front of Netflix, come and join us. Bring mates, bring thirst (for conversation, mostly), and bring your best pub trivia in case things get competitive.

We're a group of professionals in our 20s-40s who like good nights out and good causes in equal measure. New guys always welcome DM us to get involved 📨

Visiting Liverpool Thank you for just being the friendliest people!

64 Upvotes

I loved my weekend in Liverpool so much I had to post it here!

I travelled up on Saturday from Devon with my dad and brother for my dad’s 60th to do the Anfield stadium tour where we met Liverpool FC legends Phil Thompson and Sammy Lee, who by the way are the funniest double act. You wouldn’t think they have 28 major trophies between them considering how down to earth and humble they are.
The staff all around the stadium were incredible as well, taking the time to tell us personal stories about their time working there and asking us questions about our own personal lives.

After a quick stop at our hotel we headed into the city center and found an amazing Turkish restaurant called Elif on Castle Street - again the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful.
Then we headed to Mathew Street and unfortunately we were too late to get into the Cavern Club but ended up in Eric’s opposite it. Wow….the people in that place were the friendliest, funniest people I have ever met. I’m always a bit aware about going out in ‘bigger’ cities, it’s a lot busier than the South West but we could not have felt more welcome in Eric’s. They had a great 3 piece band on playing covers of all the classics and everyone was in a great mood. We had random people of all ages and genders with their arms around us, dancing and singing with us, buying us drinks, wanting to take photos of us all together when they found out we were there for my dad’s birthday, it was just an amazing way to end the night. These were all locals as well from all parts of the city, just having a good time and wanting to share it with us. I’m surprised at how many locals were in Mathew Street to be honest, I thought it was be a bit more ‘touristy’. Is it usually like that?

I’ve been up to a Liverpool plenty of times to watch the Reds but this was my first time actually going out in the city and it really was the perfect way to celebrate my dad’s birthday, so I just wanted to say a massive thank you to the people of Liverpool for cementing the stereotype of being the friendliest people in the world! I can’t wait to come back soon.

Does anybody know what is ever going to happen to this building its sad to see how it has been left to fall into such a poor state of repair. Why does the council allow this iconic building to become even more of an eye sore year after year and not enforce the owner to make the required improvements.

General Question Question about Litter Picking

Fed up of all the litter in our beautiful city so instead of complaining I’m just going to start litter picking some evenings

My only concern is I don’t want to be done for fly tipping but won’t be able to put it all in my bin- do I need to report it to the council if I’ve litter picked?

Tried to look on the council website but it was not useful at all

I’m really happy to share that my painting Untamed Freedom, inspired by Liverpool, received 3rd Place in the People’s Choice Award at Liverpool Art Fair.

It feels like a real milestone for me, and I’m incredibly grateful.

If anyone here happened to vote for my painting, thank you so much. It genuinely means a lot to me ❤️

If you haven’t visited Liverpool Art Fair yet, there’s still time. The exhibition runs at the Royal Liver Building until 26th July, and it’s well worth seeing. The building is beautiful inside, and there are so many fantastic works by local artists on display.

Hopefully some of you get the chance to visit!

Looking for friends 40 M Northern Ireland

Hey everyone hope you all having a fantastic day and enjoying the sun and heat!

Was over in Liverpool last year (hope to get over again this year) - can I just say you guys are such a friendly bunch (you made me feel so welcome even when I got lost many times lol) from the bus drivers through to the people in the street - always gave me proper time and attention! So I’ll definitely be back!

Now here’s a random and prob weird question or proposal lol - I’d love to make new friends from Liverpool - apologise if this isn’t the right place to ask this - maybe you can direct me to somewhere else!

I’m a divorced father of one (I’m also gay and support a rival team (sorry lol) I’m a type 1 diabetic (the joys of hypos in this heat lol) and hopefully a decent down to earth friendly guy - I love a good chin wag as you can tell!

I thought to myself - step out of my comfort zone reach out and see if anyone would be interested in chatting from someone from across the Irish Sea and become friends!

I don’t care what gender or sexual orientation you are - after all I’m only looking good conversations and banter! However I do get on with people around my own age range so saying 30-40!

No worries if no one is interested- it was worth a punt anyways!

Have a great day - let’s make the most of this sun while we have it! Have a great one ✌️

As far as I know it was a bingo that closed in 2008/09. It just seems like wasted potential. Plus i've seen lots of kids are apparently going in here and making videos (which I don't have a problem with, I understand the appeal).. But still just a bit of an eyesore when i walk past. Especially the plants growing on the side

News / Blog / Information New Gambling Harms Support in LCR

9 Upvotes

Breaking The Odds is a new community-based gambling harms support service, delivered by First Person Project CIC and funded through the NHS England Gambling Harms Programme.

We know that gambling harms often remain hidden and that many people don't recognise they need support until their finances, relationships or mental health have been significantly affected. Others never seek help because they don't identify with the term gambling addiction.

Breaking the Odds has been developed to change that.
Our service offers free, confidential and trauma-informed support for anyone experiencing gambling-related harms across the Liverpool City Region, as well as support for family members and loved ones affected by someone else's gambling.

Support includes:
One-to-one support
Recovery coaching
Counselling
Practical support around debt, housing and employment
Family support
Recovery groups

Our multidisciplinary team combines experienced mental health clinicians, counsellors, coaches and support practitioners to deliver compassionate, evidence-based care within community settings.

For more information, to make a referral or self refer, please go to https://www.firstpersonprojectcic.co.uk/whats-on/breaking-the-odds/

It’s expiring 2nd August and must be used in person for food/drink not for an online order. If anyone wants to use it, drop me a message and I’ll send it over to you. For free just don’t want it to go to waste!

I'd like to be able to stash my bags on the way home from work and go for a run before continuing the journey (city centre is more populated than where I live so would feel safer). I thought one of the museums would have them but they both close at 5pm and I can't see any in Central Station.

Music Stranger playing rise fm

55 Upvotes

To whomever was driving down the east lancs near the blue star chippy that was playing rise fm from GTA 3 on Thursday afternoon I just want to say is right...... It was my first time ever driving on the actual road with my instructor & honestly it couldn't have been more meant to be that we were both on the road at the same time while you was blasting slyder - neo the one, it was the one part of that lesson that actually made me smile & gave me hope for when I finally get to drive myself.

I think that's the first mix I'm gonna put on when I past my test.

Again, is right for having such a great taste in tunes & more Scousers need to listen to some trance now & again

So many of r mums & dads were raised on it & it's probably how half of us were born 😋 whilst they were raving to it.

Deffo a memory I'll take to the grave.

That is all

I'm looking for somewhere to take a 16-year-old to practice driving, obviously before they've got a provisional.

The larger the area the better, so they can get used to at least 2nd gear. And ideally deserted and relatively secure.
