This is the final service in our year’s programme of events celebrating the bicentenary of the Act of Parliament abolishing the British transatlantic slave trade. It commemorates the beginning of the abolitionist campaign, the first great public meeting of which was actually held in our church on October 28th, 1787. We shall re-enact Thomas Clarkson’s historic sermon, on that occasion. And we will also be celebrating the present-day work of the Manchester diocesan Fair Trade Campaign.
