BirkenEd’s Place will be a relaxed, creative space where everyone is welcome. Through changing exhibitions and events – from family craft sessions to walking tours – the space will give the people of Birkenhead an opportunity to shape the future of their town.

BirkenEd’s Place will create a hub for learning about ambitious plans, having discussions, developing ideas and – crucially – helping to shape decisions about the future of Birkenhead. Over four months, it will bring together several key projects into one space helping to make sure people can share their ideas in a meaningful way.

There will be opportunities to see how feedback and ideas shared in the space are changing proposals and shaping the future of the town. You can also learn how comments from previous consultations have helped to shape future projects and inform Council decisions.

Events and drop in

BirkenEd’s Place will offer more than a space to talk about Birkenhead; it will welcome people who need a place to spend some time, to do a bit of work, meet with a community group, take part in a craft activity, or simply have a warm drink and chat with other visitors and our friendly team.

Find out more about what’s happening on our Engagements and Events page.
