00:00Liverpool's oldest surviving cinema, the Walton Picturehouse, has just over a week to raise enough money to reopen.
00:08The venue, which first opened in 1927, shut during the pandemic before a community campaign began.
00:15Kevin Fearon and Gillian Miller are the driving force behind the refurbishment.
00:20Organisers say recent fundraising, including events and donations worth £6,000,
00:25has brought them closer to the £450,000 target.
00:30They now need a further £21,000 by the 6th of May.
00:35Supporters say reopening the independent cinema would preserve local heritage
00:39and revive a shared film-going experience for future audiences.
