What we’re about
Liverpool Humanists brings non-religious people together to live happier and more fulfilled lives and to be a force for good in our community.
Humanists are people who shape their own lives in the here and now, because we believe this is the only life we have. We make sense of the world through logic, reason, and evidence, and always seek to treat those around us with warmth, understanding, care, respect and responsibility.
We organise events and activities of interest, with the aim of encouraging better understanding of humanism, and cultivating a network of support for fellow humanists. We offer a safe space in which to talk and share experiences - whether people have moved away from their religious faith or never had any in the first place.
We are a diverse group, and we have new members regularly joining - so do come along and get involved!

See all- Sunday "Walk, Talk and Fork": Waterfront to ChinatownThe Liverpool Gerry Marsden Ferry Terminal (Beatles Statue), England
Come and join Liverpool Humanists, meet old friends and new, and enjoy a Sunday morning walk from the Waterfront to Chinatown, followed by a Chinese meal together.
Liverpool’s connection with China began in 1834 with the arrival of the first ships which brought silk and cotton to the city’s bustling docks. The presence of Chinese people in Liverpool steadily grew, largely fuelled by trade and maritime activities, establishing itself as the oldest Chinese community in Europe. Chinese sailors and merchants, attracted by the city’s booming port, brought their families to settle in the area.
As a nod to history, we will meet outside the Mersey Ferry Terminal (by the Beatles statue) and walk via Albert Dock to the Salthouse Dock archway. We'll cross Wapping, perhaps pausing for a short refreshment break in the Baltic Fleet pub, then on through the Baltic Triangle to Chinatown. We'll walk the length of Nelson Street to the Chinese arch before settling down for a modern Chinese lunch in Man Tsuen Ho's restaurant.
Whether you're humanist, humanist-friendly, or just curious, you'll be made welcome. We hope to see you there!
