Following the example of the King and the Royal Family, the role of the Lieutenancy is to maintain the dignity of The Crown and to promote cooperation, cohesion and links within and between all sections of the community on Merseyside.
The Lord-Lieutenant of Merseyside represents His Majesty the King in the county, which comprises the five local authority areas of Wirral, Sefton, Knowsley, St Helens, and Liverpool, totalling a population of approximately 1.4 million people.
The Lord-Lieutenant leads the Merseyside Lieutenancy in proactively supporting people, groups, communities, businesses and organisations that live, work, and volunteer in the region, and works to support those that wish to celebrate Merseyside’s rich culture, heritage, and diversity. The Lord-Lieutenant undertakes the following responsibilities:
The planning of Royal Visits and the escorting of members of the Royal family when they visit Merseyside
The presentation of honours and awards on behalf of The King
Reviewing and advising on honours nominations
Representing The King at local events
Chairman of the Advisory Committee that recommends the appointment of Magistrates to the Lord Chancellor
The Lord-Lieutenant also has a role and active involvement in:
The King’s Awards for Enterprise
The King’s Award for Voluntary Service
Co-ordinating invitations to Buckingham Palace Garden Parties
The King’s birthday messages and greetings, for example those who have reach 100 years of age, and of congratulatory messages to couples on their 60th or 65th wedding anniversary
The Lord-Lieutenant appoints a Vice Lord-Lieutenant. The Vice Lord Lieutenant, or one of the Deputy Lieutenants, will assume responsibilities if the Lord-Lieutenant is unavailable.
Deputy Lieutenants support the work of the Lieutenancy, and the number of Deputies appointed is in proportion to the population of the county of Merseyside. Deputy Lieutenants retire at the age of 75.
