A one-of-a kind cookery school has laid down fresh roots in an historic hall where The Beatles performed for the first time more than six decades ago.
Stedychefs Learning Centre, which provides day-long cookery classes, art and music sessions to disabled adults, has come a long way from its humble beginnings in 2017. Once a "home away from home" for just four students, the school now trains more than 40 up-and-coming chefs aged 18 to 64.
Having outgrown its previous premises on Rice Lane, director Steve Bygrave leapt at the chance to move the learning centre into Brockman Hall in Tuebrook, where The Beatles played their first live show on February 16, 1961.
