  • Good afternoon, we have been bequeathed a collection of Everton home programmes dating from 1968- 1999. Can you advise best avenue to donate!

    • Many thanks for your kind offer Bob, and for getting in touch.
      I’ve passed this on to Richie Gillham, who is one of the matchday team in St Luke’s, who will drop you a line shortly.
      Cheers
      Mike Royden
