Why the 471 Culture Card Matters
471 Routes C.I.C. is powered by passion and people.
Alongside full-time jobs, our small team gives over 50 volunteer hours every month to support local artists and audiences. We’ve personally invested £4,000 of our own funds to build and grow this community, because we believe in it deeply. We have delivered open mics, poetry nights, community festivals, art exhibitions, free music workshops for young people, a record label and so much more!
Many artists have also donated their time and fees to help us grow too. With huge thanks to:
Geoff Owens, Alison & Thomas Schultz, Creakin’ Gates, Mike Ryan, Liz Owen, Bread Hotel, Ian & Erica Harwood, Nicola Hardman, Cia Tomasso, Mark Chalmer, NatFilms, Pete Carr, The Monday Group, Daniel Meakin, Future Yard, Start Yard, Bloom Building, Indigo Cafe, Bryne Avenue Baths and more!
This has never been a solo effort. It’s been built through trust, shared belief and people backing artists.
The 471 Culture Card helps carry that weight. It means this work doesn’t rely solely on unpaid labour or personal sacrifice. It helps us plan ahead, support artists fairly, keep events affordable and protect the independence that makes 471 Routes C.I.C. what it is.
When you become a 471 Culture Card holder, you’re not just supporting events;
You’re supporting people.
You’re keeping venues open.
You’re protecting accessibility.
You’re keeping creativity moving between Wirral and Liverpool.
