TODAY is Fathers’ Day – the day we thank all the important male figures in our lives for everything they’ve done and continue to do for us.

Whether it’s dads, uncles, brothers of family friends, today is the day to let them know how grateful you are to have them in your life.

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been asking readers to share their Fathers’ Day messages and photos, telling us what makes their dad so special and whey he’s head and shoulders above the rest.

Here are some of those messages dedicated to the dads and other father figures in Wirral on Fathers’ Day.

You can still send your messages using this link: wirralglobe.co.uk/my/ccn/assignment/X8Rtkvoz/

From Joanne Williams

What is your dad's full name?Dave Williams

Which part of Wirral is he from?New Ferry

What makes your dad so special?All dads are special for different reasons but here's what makes my dad so special to us. My dad is the rock of our family and he's our go to for everything. My dad has the ability to solve problems we think are impossible, mend things we think are done, pick us up when we're down and pull us together when we fall apart. When we lost my mum 15 years ago, dad stepped up to take on mum's role too. He adores all of his grandchildren and loves to spoil them. He's our hero and we love him to bits.
