David France Collection - Everton Collection Charitable Trust

Everton Collection Charitable Trust

Dr France claims that he was simply the guardian of Everton's history. It had always been his desire that the people of Merseyside have access to his treasures.

He insisted that all football fans have physical access to the collection in Liverpool, or online access via a dedicated website.

The collection will be housed within the Liverpool Record Office in Liverpool Central Library and is expected to be used in various displays associated with the city's new museum.

Presently, the collection is undergoing digitization which the Trust expects to take approximately one year to complete. After this process, the collection is expected to be available for viewing on a dedicated website, and items being on view at a museum within Everton new stadium, as well as various exhibitions throughout the city of Liverpool.

The dedicated website is now available at http://www.evertoncollection.org.uk/.
