World Merit Day

A brand new Liverpool music, entertainment and film festival has won support from pop icon Will.I.Am’s charity foundation.

World Merit Day on July 24 will be the finale of the ECHO-backed International Festival of Business.

As part of the event the I.Am.Angel Foundation will lead a 24-hour digital session looking at coding, website building and apps.

City film charity Clapperboard UK will be working with young people to produce film and TV projects from script to screen, and Grammy award winning music video director Woodkid will be leading a workshop.
