John Lennon 80

 

The World Will Live As One

 

9th October 2020 marked what would have been John Lennon's 80th birthday.

To commemorate, we joined with businesses across the city to celebrate #JohnLennon80. At Strawberry Field, we announced the arrival of John's 'Imagine' piano, launched our 'People of Peace' Awards and gathered 'Prayers for Peace', alongside other initiatives.
