Story

Strawberry Field

As a Cavern Club Resident Artist and lifelong Beatle fan, I'm very excited to be raising money to help this great causeStrawberry Field

Strawberry Field, the iconic site immortalised by John Lennon in The Beatles hit, ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’, has opened its iconic red gates to the public for the first time.

As a Cavern Club Resident Artist and lifelong Beatle fan, the site of Strawberry Field is an important one to Beatles history and the city of Liverpool. I'm very excited to be raising money to help this great cause.

Remaining true to the tradition of giving young people every best chance to succeed in life, Strawberry Field is perpetuating this legacy of care and support through a new training hub for young people with learning difficulties and other barriers to employment. With a visitor exhibition exploring the site’s history and links to John Lennon, a café as well as gardens for spiritual reflection, the Strawberry Field site weaves together educational, cultural, heritage and spiritual elements in one site to continue inspiring future generations to come.

With every visit, or donation, to this legendary site you will be helping to continue the legacy of supporting young people at Strawberry Field, this time by helping young people with learning difficulties overcome the barriers they face in gaining meaningful employment.
