2023 ward

The ward boundaries were changed in 2023 following a review by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England which decided that the existing 30 wards each represented by three Councillors should be replaced by 64 wards represented by 85 councillors with varying representation by one, two or three councillors per ward. The St Michael's ward was reformed as a single-member ward. The ward boundaries retained the centre of the 2004 ward, losing the southern section to the new Festival Gardens ward and the northern section to the new Sefton Park ward.
