Takes Place: 16th April 2026

Time: 6-7.30pm

Venue: Liverpool John Moores Student Life Building, room 2.06, Copperas Hill, Liverpool L3 5AJ

Description: Liverpool Hope University houses the archives for the Formby and Merseyside Branches of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND). At this interesting event, archivists will talk through and share some show-case items in the archive. We will also discuss the CND and its history with contemporary figures who will link the past with the present, helping us to consider the relevance of the CND in the current political climate. This event will consider a critical part of Merseyside’s history, and we hope will be of interest to the public in Merseyside and beyond. This event may also be particularly useful for undergraduate, masters, or graduate students who are considering their dissertation topics, and archives to use for them, or areas connected to the CND in their studies more generally. We look forward to seeing you there! The full archive inventory can be accessed at: https://archives.hope.ac.uk/records/CND

Price: Free to HA & Branch Associate members, visitors £4. Associate membership is £15 per year.
