Jane at TEDx Liverpool

After being named as one of Britain's New Radicals, Jane has been chosen as one of the speakers at the Liverpool event for TEDxObserver, a festival of ideas.

TEDx is a programme of local self-organised events created by TED in order to make sure that people everywhere can experience 'ideas worth spreading' from the world's most fascinating thinkers and doers. TEDXObserver is taking place in Sadler's Well's, London, this coming Saturday 10th March, but the talks will be simulcast to a number of regional events which will also feature exclusive talks of their own.

Jane will be appearing at the Bluecoat in Liverpool, delivering a talk on 'The Social Importance of Reading', alongside TRO patron Frank Cottrell-Boyce, astrophysicist Robert Simpson, Roy Boulter and Sol Papadopoulos of Hurricaine Films. The event will be hosted by Tim Adams, staff writer on The Observer.

Tickets for Saturday cost £10, including lunch, and are available here.
