Families and friends of people who have died as a result of violence will come together at a special event at Liverpool Cathedral later this month.

The Serious Violence Remembrance Evening, which is taking place on Saturday 23 September from 6:30pm – 8.30pm, will bring together those affected by all types of violence.

The theme this year is ‘What is strong, not what is wrong’, and there will be a series of live music performances, poetry readings and speeches.

The event is free and there is no requirement to register or book a place; many victims’ families will be in attendance to show support for one another.
