Lives Remembered - Liz Cooper

Monday, 2 September 2019

From Chas Ball

Liz Cooper moved to Hebden Bridge in 1977 when we set up the northern warehouse of Publications Distribution Co-op (PDC) - a radical book and magazine distribution coop - in the Birchcliffe Centre. Although as we grew it moved to Manchester in 79, Liz was quite settled in Old Town until the late 90s. See details in the obituary that was only published online in the Guardian.
