As part of your tour you have the opportunity to enter into a world where ‘nothing is real’ plunging into the 1860’s era where Strawberry Field began as a Victorian house, before it transformed into a safe place where The Salvation Army supported and homed some of Liverpool’s vulnerable youth.

Note: Media Guides are also now available in French, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese and Mandarin.
