About Steve Herra

I am third generation of Cunard seafarer, my last ship was QE2 where I was one of the Pursers and met some of the stars featured in my QE2 talk. On leaving Cunard I served in the Royal Naval Reserve and more recently conducted tours of Cunard and P&O ships whilst they were in Southampton, sadly because of the pandemic these have now ceased.

I have been delivering talks, both live and via Zoom, for 6 years now to various organisations such as U3A, Probus, W.I. and many more. Prior to this I was Training Manager delivering training modules to various groups.
