Welcome to Sefton East ROC
This website has been set up to enable the communities of Maghull, Melling, Lydiate, Sefton, Aintree and Lydiate to share ideas and resources to make our locality an even better place to live. The area covered is the Maghull Neighbourhood Policing Area and we are fortunate to have their support.
A meeting organized by Bev Wells, of the Maghull and Melling Team Ministry, at Maghull Town Hall on 10th February 2010 attracted 154 people who are concerned about our community. Representatives of many of the Churches in the area along with the police, local residents and people from other interested organizations turned up to contribute to the very successful night.

The Narnia Event in Liverpool, February 2011 - help needed
Posted by Fr Barry
Management Team Leader Wanted.
For Christian Event in Liverpool, February 2011
The In Another Place Christian charity has successfully put on a number of high quality free events in the Waterloo / Crosby area of Merseyside. The last being “The Narnia Event” which was held in daylight hours over 3 weeks last November / December. This was attended by over 3,300 people including 78 classes from 30 different schools. It involved volunteers with and without a church background as well as community groups; in all about 150 people of all ages and backgrounds. Regretfully, on days open to the general public we had to turn some visitors away due to lack of capacity. One of the visitors who did see the event was the manager of St Georges Hall, Liverpool who suggested IAP might like to take the production to that great hall.
There is considerable enthusiasm for putting on this event but our management experience is limited to local events. This would be a city centre event in a large public building with potential for 10 -15,000 visitors who would pay an entry fee. It would open for about 10 hours each day over a two week period, probably with 25% being organised school etc. groups.
Outline descriptions of each management role have been prepared and we have volunteers for a number of these roles. However, we seek someone sympathetic to our aims who can lead this team and ensure the event is to our high standards. If you think you can help us in this way please contact Hannah Spiers on 0756 418 5134 or hannah©spiersfamily.eclipse.co.uk for further details without any obligation.

The Big Lunch 2010 - 18th July 2010
Posted by Fr Barry
At the Big Lunch 2009 there were up to a million people sat down and ate together in communities up and down the country. There was thousands of neighbourhoods and miles of bunting taken to the streets and that was even with the rain
The Big Lunch website says "From the Celtic Gateway to the Humber Bridge, and from Aberdeen to Bodmin, thousands of neighbourhoods took part in this glorious celebration of community spirit in the biggest collection of open-air parties since the Golden Jubilee." (http://www.thebiglunch.com/the-first-big-lunch.php)
Put this years date in your diary and start telling your neighbours about the idea and start planning then let us know if you are going to have one in your neighbourhood and we can promote it on the website.
Best wishes
Bev
