Discover the rich heritage of Silcock Leisure with Serena Silcock‑Prince and Justin Prescott.
Join Serena as she shares the remarkable story of her family’s deep roots in Southport, from her maternal ancestors whose presence stretches back to the early days of the town’s tourism industry, including her great ‑ great ‑ great ‑ grandfather John Jackson, one of only two surviving crew members of the tragic Mexico shipwreck.
Serena will also explore the colourful history of her paternal family, the Silcocks, who first arrived in Southport for a single fairground season in the 1960s, and fell in love with the town so completely that they chose never to leave.
