A son has paid tribute to his "strong-willed" and "amazing" mum who worked in Everton FC's laundrette for twenty years.
Honor Wright grew up on Scotland Road. She had a number of jobs before starting at Everton FC in the 1960s, where she worked to clean and repair the team's kits and training gear.
She worked there until the mid 1980s, when the club outsourced their laundry work. Honor, known to many as Nora, continued to work for the laundry company but she lost her enjoyment of the job and missed being around Goodison Park, according to her son Anthony Wright. Much loved at Everton, Honor died on March 17 2023 at the age of 90.
