Liverpool is known worldwide as a city associated with sporting achievement but it goes so much deeper than football! Join curator Karen O'Rourke as she uncovers the fascinating stories of Liverpool's sporting role models including contemporaries like Katarina Johnson-Thompson and Tash Jonas, but also less known achievers like Tom Farell, James Clarke, Lottie Dodd and Ronnie Colwell.
This talk will showcase the great sporting talent Liverpool has generated including some household names like John Conteh and Dixie Dean.
Admission to this talk is £7 and tickets can be purchased in advance below.
