Are you a serial loser of keys? Always leave your umbrella on the train? Perhaps you’ve never forgotten a sentimental item you once lost?

Researcher Dr Helen Holmes from the University of Manchester is exploring lost property: from the memories and sentiments we attach to everyday objects, to how lost things can be recycled and reused.

Come to The John Rylands Library to participate in Helen’s project and explore what happens to all the things we accidentally leave behind. No need to book, just turn up.
