 I was born, raised and went to school on the Wirral. In my younger days I spent most of my spare time sailing in competitions all around the country. In 1978 my parents drove us to the old Yugoslavia to take part in the European sailing championships as part of the British Team.
 

After school I did a number of things from being a horticultural manager to a watch officer on tall ships sailing around the UK and Northern Europe. I worked around the UK and visited many ports in Northern Europe. At the age of 21 I settled into a public service career moved back to the Wirral and became a volunteer crew member on a RNLI Lifeboat. In 2005 I was selected to undertake a civil service management course at Kings College Cambridge covering all aspects behind decision making.    
 

In my career I worked for a number of government bodies in very varied management roles. In 2007 I joined the Charity Commission working in different specialities including serious non compliance, workflow management, partnership management and projects.   
 

In 2017 I was diagnosed with complex PTSD due to the number of deaths and serious injuries I had been involved with in a rescue capacity. In 2020 I suffered two severe brain haemorrhages and had to undergo major brain surgery. Due to my health I took early retirement from work and retired from the RNLI after 30 years voluntary service.
 

A person recommended a new organisation that had just started up Journeymen to support me in my recovery. Journeymen supported and helped me which lead to a full recovery, it will be great to give something back even if it is only in a small way.

 Ewen was a GP at Fender Way Health Centre on the Beechwood in Birkenhead and also served as Medical Director of Wirral Community Health & Care Foundation Trust before retiring in 2018.


He has a broad experience of the health and care systems in Wirral, the stark inequalities and the many barriers to people accessing the most appropriate care, both form the perspective of a care giver and as a member of the public seeking care.


In his retirement, he has found a calling to helping people in need with compassion, understanding and a good measure of laughter and gratitude.  His main focus is with those who are ill with alcohol and other substances who wish to stop and rebuild their lives with a smile on their faces.

   Former Lord Mayor of Liverpool 


   Former Lord Mayor of Liverpool and experienced Shipwrights. 

Before entering politics, Frank served as a long time Shipwrights having served his apprenticeship in Cammell Lairds Shipbuilders.


 Frank then went on to work in HDW in Hamburg and also Vickers in Barrow-in-Furness before returning to Liverpool during the decline of the shipbuilding industry across the country, where he then started work in Fords on the production line. 


After 6 months at Ford, Frank left to take part in a re-training post as a bricklayer for six months, but unfortunately following completion, found it difficult to find work. 


After several small jobs working on extensions for friends, Frank was fortunate enough to be at the right place at the right time, having met an old friend who informed him of a job going as a Shipwright in a ship repair yard, where he stayed for 6 months.  


It was during this time that Frank became involved with the Trade Unions, which he had initially joined as an apprentice. Rising through the ranks, he later became a shop steward to branch official, followed by district committee member and then district committee secretary of the Associated Society of Boilermakers, Shipwrights, Blacksmiths and Structural Workers.


When the ASOB amalgamated with the GMB, Frank was elected onto the regional committee and following that later elected onto the National Executive Council. 

Frank then later entered politics in 1990 as an elected member of Liverpool City Council, as a Labour representative for the St Domingo Ward, which due to boundary changes later became the Everton Ward. 


Up until now, Frank has represented his ward for 31 years. 

During this time, he has held a number of positions, including Chair of Finance for 4 years, Deputy Leader for 2 years (1994-96), Leader of the Council (1996-98) and Lord Mayor (2010-11). In 2017 Frank then left the Labour Party but remain on the Council as an Independent Cllr to the present date.


In 1999, Frank also started working for the Breckfield and North Everton Neighborhood Council (BNENC) as a Project Manager, which had 5 staff and worked out of the old Everton Library. Through his management, Frank built the organisation up from 5 to 15 workers, with 20 volunteers for additional support, and helped to coronadite the transition over to a newly refurbished building, that catered for numerous community projects. 


Some of those included nursery/ crèches, youth and pensioners club, veterans’ projects, health inclusion project for men (HIM), as well as a cycle and repair and maintenance project.

   Mental Health Practitioner for the Homeless  


Denise started her career as an Occupational Therapist in 2003 working in various mental health settings across both adult and older people's mental health services. However, for the past 14 years, she worked as a Mental Health Practitioner within local Homeless Services. 


Denise now currently works within the homeless service for Cheshire Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. About the work she does, she said: “I'm still as passionate and committed to building effective working relationships between homelessness and other services to this day.


“I’m all too familiar with the challenges and complexities that homelessness brings, and early intervention is crucial in addressing the tri-morbidity of mental health, physical health and substance misuse that affects those marginalised and stigmatised by society.


“With this, there is an increasing need for mental health promotion strategies that effectively engage men. I'm a strong advocate for the use of meaningful occupations and activities that enable a person to move towards improved health, function and quality of life.


"In my own quest for an ideal work-life balance, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, cooking and I've recently discovered the joy of camping."
