Hi - does anyone recall an amateur boxer called Ollie Locke from the Birkenhead area? I’d say he was active around 1965-ish. He was a civvy assistant at our scout group when I was a kid and I’ve often wondered what happened to him. He was a good man and a great role-model to us kids. He’s probably in his 80’s now if he still survives and if he doesn’t, I’d appreciate knowing his FRP so I could pay my respects. Thanks.

You might get in touch with Venture Boxing Club, Johnny Campbell who died 30 years ago was Ollie's uncle and somebody at Venture will know Campbell's family. https://www.ventureboxing.co.uk/
There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music.

Thank you Mr Deeper (?) - I have emailed the club to see if a link to Johnny Campbell’s family still exists. I’ll let you know how I get on. Thanks again. Sully.
