As part of the commemoration of Liverpool’s 800th birthday, the Chamber is planning an event at Liverpool’s Anglican Cathedral to celebrate the role of business and commerce in the city’s life. We are considering September 2007 and an ecumenical event to mark the contribution of business life to Liverpool’s 800-year history. This will not be a formal religious service but a broadly based recognition of the importance of business to the lifeblood of Liverpool and Merseyside.

Before finalising a date we need an indication of how many members might be interested in attending to help determine catering needs and speakers’ support. Consequently I would be grateful if you could indicate, by email, whether you would prefer the event to be

a) Saturday morning, finishing with a lunch;

b) A midweek, early evening event including a drinks reception;

c) No preference either way.

Finally, to cover the associated costs, it is likely that we would need to levy a modest charge of £15 per head - please indicate if you find this acceptable.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards

Jack Stopforth
