Welcome back!

Todays episode is with Everton F.C. and Welsh goalkeeper, Neville Southall.

Neville has been regarded as one the best goalkeeper of his generation playing professional football for over 3 decades in which he made 751 appearances at Everton, as well as 92 appearances for Wales. During his time at Everton they won 2 Leagues titles, 2 FA Cups, and were European Cup champions. However, these days Neville is known for giving a voice to marginalised groups within society. He has been known to hand over his Twitter account to various groups and organisations that support them, to use his platform to educate, support and answer questions people may have on specific topics or matters. 

In this episode we talk about his childhood growing up in Llandudno, the people that came into his life at the right place and the time that resulted in him signing with Everton. As well as the biggest things he has learnt over the years. We also discuss how he left professional sport to become a teacher and what he is most passionate today and why he believes he should use his platform to help others. 

I hope you enjoy episode 7 of the Times and Places Podcast with Neville Southall.
