We're launching the ECHO's LGBTQIA+ newsletter.
Sent once a week, the newsletter promises to promote equality, inclusion and more importantly, give a voice to those who aren't often heard. Not only will the newsletter feature our biggest and best stories, but shine a spotlight on the incredible people in the Liverpool city region.
The newsletter will be sent by Paul McAuley, the ECHO's LGBTQIA+ Community Reporter, who is committed to sharing stories of the LGBTQIA+ community and minority groups in Merseyside.

Paul said: "As someone who didn't feel 100% comfortable with their sexuality until they moved to Liverpool, I know first-hand the city has a welcoming LGBTQIA+ community and a rich and vast history that comes with it.
"Despite only living here for four years, I have heard some amazing stories and met some incredible people. I am now excited to learn more about the community that has helped so much and hopefully make them feel more seen - especially the letters in the LGBTQIA+ acronym which aren't shouted about as much in comparison to others."
