DERBY QUAD will be welcoming Geoff Capes – former Olympic shot putter, the World’s Strongest Man and Highland Games champion – to the venue for a one-off talk in July.

One of the most recognised sportsmen of his generation, and the most capped British male athlete of all time, this is a rare opportunity to hear Geoff Capes in conversation talking about his hugely successful sporting career.

As well as talking about his life, Geoff will outline the future work he wants to deliver to support young people in challenging circumstances to maximise their sporting passions. The event is in aid of and organised by The Geoff Capes Foundation, a national charity to provide disadvantaged children and young people opportunities to participate in sport and other recreational and leisure time activities. Geoff will talk about the benefits of the charity and take questions from the audience.

An Evening with Geoff Capes takes place on Monday 22nd July. Tickets are priced at £10. For more information and to book tickets please call QUAD Box office on (01332) 290606 or click here.
