The City Region’s film and TV industry is booming. As the UK’s most filmed area outside London, record growth has seen our area become the leading film and TV hub outside of the capital. It’s added £150m to the local economy and created more than 5,000 jobs. But how is this felt on the ground – behind the scenes? 🎬 @MetroMayorSteve went on set with the cast and crew of ‘This City Is Ours’ during filming at a restaurant in Liverpool’s Chinatown and caught up with props masters, make-up artists, costume designers and actors amongst those working on the hit BBC crime drama. 🎥 Hear their thoughts on the industry in our series starting with location crew Laura and Neave.

#DevolutionDelivers for Knowsley Knowsley’s Bowring Park and Golf Course in Huyton now offers more than one type of green after it encouraged rewilding with native plants and created new natural habitats to improve biodiversity. Last year its ‘Grow: The Sustainability Campus’ was named the Sustainable Project of the Year at the prestigious Golf Environment Awards. The site has even off-set carbon from the nearby motorway using sensors and provided green skills training for the local community and businesses.

From empty spaces to thriving community places - meet the Liverpool entrepreneur making a big social impact. When Shima Ami founded the Community Lettings Management Company (CLMC), he saw an opportunity to turn underused school halls, pitches and meeting rooms into affordable venues for community groups who often struggle to find suitable facilities. For Shima, no space should go to waste - every hall has a role in supporting the community: “Giving people access to space is important for mental health; important for keeping fit and important for community cohesion.” With support from Liverpool City Council’s Business Support Service, funded by the UKSPF through the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, CLMC is helping schools boost their income while bringing local communities together. 🤝 👉 Read the full story here: ow.ly/sYEK50YthQX

We’re proud to celebrate Spotlight Pathology, a pioneering health-tech company based at Sci-Tech Daresbury, as it secures £1.4 million in seed funding to accelerate its AI‑powered diagnostic tools for blood cancer. This investment round, co-led by the LCR Seed Fund, our Combined Authority fund supporting high‑growth potential businesses - demonstrates exactly why the City Region is becoming a national leader in science, innovation, and deep‑tech commercialisation. We’re also delighted to see follow‑on investment from LYVA Labs, another Combined Authority–funded organisation playing a crucial role in nurturing and scaling high‑potential innovation across the Liverpool City Region. Blood cancers are among the most difficult to diagnose, and faster, more accurate analysis can make a life‑changing difference for patients. Spotlight Pathology’s technology has the potential to transform clinical workflows, reduce diagnostic delays, and ultimately improve outcomes for people across the UK. By backing companies like Spotlight Pathology through the LCR Seed Fund and LYVA Labs – we are not just investing in business growth but we are helping bring forward the next generation of life‑saving technologies founded and scaled right here in the Liverpool City Region. 👉 ow.ly/V4ie50YsLai

The Liverpool City Region Race Equality Hub’s Shadowing Programme is helping to create more inclusive pathways across the region’s public and cultural institutions. Representatives from Knowsley were part of the initiative, which pairs senior white leaders from key partner organisations such as local authorities, Merseyside Police, Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service, and National Museums Liverpool — with aspiring leaders from Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities. The programme offered meaningful insight, removed barriers and positively impacted the Race Equality Hub’s work to drive lasting change across the region.

The countdown has begun to Liverpool Music Month - a celebration of the artists, venues and communities that have made Liverpool a UNESCO City of Music. The programme, taking place throughout May, is twinned with New York City's Music Month, creating a transatlantic partnership between two of the world’s greatest music cities. It comes after the city region's music industry leaders met with their counterparts in the big apple in 2024 to explore how they could collaborate. Liverpool Music Month will then be followed by Liverpool Summer of Music, a city-region-wide celebration of live music and cultural events taking place from June through to August. 👉 ow.ly/zwIt50Yraqr
