Covid-19: important information
Our One Stop shops are closed during the Covid-19 pandemic, however we are currently reviewing all operating arrangements in line with Government guidance, including a risk assessment, before a decision is made for the date of reopening.
We are also experiencing an extremely high volume of calls to our Contact Centre during Covid-19, if you call, you may face long delays. There are alternative ways for you to get information during these difficult and challenging times:
- Stay up to date with changes to council services at our Community updates webpage;
- Volunteer to help vulnerable residents in Sefton here
- Access a range of Council service online

Virtual Contact Centre
Our incredibly hard working colleagues in the Contact Centre have now moved to a Virtual Contact Centre model, allowing them to work safely and efficiently from their homes during the COVID-19 situation.
The new system has now been successfully implemented and our staff are working hard to answer your queries as efficiently as possible.
The team will continue to concentrate its focus on the more vulnerable members of our community.
Currently we are unable to process payments for some council services. Where possible if you do wish to pay for a service, your call will be transferred to the automated payment line.
