Liverpool welcomes 50 new citizens on St George’s Day

Liverpool welcomes 50 new citizens on St George’s Day

Liverpool celebrates a powerful moment of inclusion and civic pride, as 50 people from across the world become British citizens in a special ceremony at St George’s Hall, held fittingly today (Wednesday 23rd April 2025) on St George’s Day.

Led by Liverpool City Council’s Registration Service, the ceremony marks the final step in a deeply personal journey for each participant, and the beginning of a new chapter as full members of British society.

The event took place in the historic grandeur of St George’s Hall, offering a powerful atmosphere for new citizens to mark the start of a new chapter. The event shines a light on the diverse communities that make up Liverpool, and the values of unity that define it.

With the ceremony falling on St George’s Day, a date traditionally associated with English identity, it becomes an even more symbolic moment, highlighting the evolving story of modern Britain and Liverpool’s proud tradition as a welcoming city.

As Liverpool continues to welcome people from all over the world, this event stands as a powerful symbol of what it means to belong — and what it means to be a Liverpudlian.

Councillor Laura Robertson-Collins, Cabinet Member for Neighbourhoods, said: 

“This is what Liverpool is all about, a city that welcomes, embraces and celebrates the people who choose to call it home. 

“These ceremonies are powerful reminders of the strength we gain from our diversity and I’m incredibly proud that so many people are becoming citizens right here, in the heart of Liverpool, on such a symbolic day.“ 

Dr Mqhreen Aleem, one of the new citizens, shared what the moment means to them: 

“This day means everything to me. 

“I’ve worked hard to build a life here, and becoming a British citizen in Liverpool — in such a beautiful place, on St George’s Day — feels like a true beginning. I’m proud to call this city my home’’.
