Canon Pete Wilcox and Peter Bradley at Speakers' Corner in Lichfield

Lichfield’s Speakers’ Corner has been named as one of the best free events in the country by a national travel guide.

The event was included on Sky Travel’s list of the ten best free weekend’s to beat the January blues.

The [report said](http://travel.sky.com/inspiration/ukBreaks/Beat-the-January-Blues-UK-Weekends-for-Free?page=5&ref=lichfieldlive.co.uk):

> “It’s not often that Lichfield inspires such cultured climes as Prague however (in turn inspired by the original one in Hyde Park) the relatively new Lichfield Speakers’ Corner has done just that.  
>  
> “Occupying a designated space near the Cathedral this is the pilot project of a charity aiming to create new opportunities for people to air their opinions in public. Head down there now to watch history in the making as potential future world leaders try to win friends and influence people.”
