Beating Heart of Liverpool
April 15, 2022
Liverpool is a city with a big heart, but none quite as big as that of local man, Robin Baynes MBE.
Robin is the founder of Liverpool Heartbeat, a charity committed to inspiring and supporting young people to live healthy lives. Robin founded the charity in memory of his lifelong friend, Kenny O’Toole, a fellow Liverpool School Swimming Champion.
In his name, Robin and friends created the first Heartbeat event, a sponsored swim from Scotland to Ireland for the British Heart Foundation.
The rest, as they say, is history.

Arrived in Nelson’s Dockyard today, and what a place.
Bernie and I set off from Chester on our way to Gatwick, buzzing with pride as we fly to La Gomera to welcome the incredible Three Flying Fish - Rowan, Anna and Harry.

The Children have Spoken
The Liverpool theatre scene is about to get a whole lot more mysterious—and a lot more hilarious. The Elektric Apple, a vibrant and trailblazing disabled theatre group, is returning to the stage with their latest original production.

This photo means the world to me.
Today we had the joy of taking 50 children, parents and carers from New Start Homes, Lighthouse, Luminer and Elektric Apple to Chester Zoo — our final gift of 2025, and what a gift it was.
