Football fans and sports enthusiasts are invited to take a trip down memory lane this October as Chester FC Club Historian Chas Sumner takes part in Storyhouse Elders.

Storyhouse Elders returns to Chester this October with five days of community, connection and creativity, bringing people together through a programme of talks, performances, crafts, singing, dancing, screenings and more.

As part of the festival, Chas will lead Football and Sporting Memories at Storyhouse on Tuesday 13 October, offering a chance for sports fans to come together, share memories and reminisce about the sporting moments, people and places that have meant something to them over the years.

Football & Sporting Memories

Tuesday 13 October
10:30am
Garret Theatre, Storyhouse

Chas will bring along a fascinating collection of photographs, newspaper clippings and sporting memorabilia, with plenty of opportunities for attendees to share their own memories and stories.

Whether your sporting memories are centred around Chester FC, local football, national sporting heroes or simply the games and moments you’ve enjoyed over the years, this promises to be a relaxed and enjoyable morning of conversation and nostalgia.

And don’t forget – you’re encouraged to bring along your own photographs, newspaper cuttings or memorabilia to help spark conversations and bring memories back to life.

Storyhouse Elders is designed with older members of Chester’s community in mind, but everyone is welcome to take part.

Best of all, all Storyhouse Elders events are FREE or Pay What You Can.
