Future Exhibitions

Durham Amateur Football Trust is currently exhibiting in the Durham area. The level of interest generated has been overwhelming, with packed out exhibitions. Our exhibitions often feature film shows and talk-ins with ex-players and fans.   Each exhibition has a theme and usually consists of photographs, press cuttings, clothing, football and boots, medals, trophies, badges and other personal items of memorabilia which have been kindly donated to the Trust.
