Talk at Hull History Centre, November 2017
We were proud to deliver a talk as part of the City of Culture in 2017.
It was so busy that we had to run it twice!
Thanks to all the people who attended, particularly those who stayed behind to ask questions. We enjoyed it thoroughly and look forward to delivering it again.
