Ecological writer Satish Kumar once wrote that ‘unless you know Nature, you cannot love her’. Likewise, if we wish to protect England’s green and pleasant land, it’s important to get to know why. People who drop fast food litter, pollute our seas with oil and hunt our precious wildlife, obviously were never taught all about why our land is so beautiful and precious.
Merseyside is home to Liverpool (one of England’s biggest cities) and also nearby is Warrington, although that’s officially in Cheshire. Home to the Wirral and with a strong musical connection thanks to The Beatles, this is mostly an urban area with strong links to Ireland (you can travel there by boat from here, as well as from Holyhead in North Wales).
