The Manchester Centre for Youth Studies is hosting a talk by Sylvia Lancaster on 22nd April, 5-7pm in the Geoffrey Manton building at MMU.

In this talk, Sylvia will talk from a personal perspective, with honesty, about her daughter’s murder, the trial and the work of the Foundation that was established in Sophie’s name.

Following the murder of her “goth” daughter Sophie in 2007, Sylvia Lancaster, an experienced youth worker, established the Sophie Lancaster Foundation Charity, whose aims are to create a lasting legacy to Sophie through education and campaigning for the UK Hate Crime legislation to include alternative subcultures.

The event is free to attend but we do ask you to register: http://tinyurl.com/l9rdrun
