The Chainbreakers
On Thursday 16th October here at
Wellington Methodist Church at 7.00pm
Two hundred years ago the British were the world’s leaders in the slave trade. The fight to abolish this horrific practice is a gripping story of persistence, self sacrifice and courage. From the trading cities of Liverpool and Bristol and the hallowed chambers of the House of Commons to the fiery hell of the Jamaican slave rebellion ‘The Chainbreakers’ is a fast paced journey through the turbulent history of the battle for abolition. Brought to the stage by the writers and performers of the Saltmine Creative Arts, this production is presented in support of the ‘Stop the Traffik‘ campaign.
Admission is by ticket only and these are available from Wellington Civic Office. There are only a limited number of tickets so get yours now.

Mrs Lily Loynton
It is with sadness that we hear of the death of Lily. She was a very faithful member of our group, always willing to do anything she could to help. We well remember the night she told us all about her working life. It really was interesting. She will be greatly missed but remembered with love and thanks.

Mrs Lily Loynton
Memories of Mrs Lily Loynton ( known to some of us as ‘Lil’ ) go back a long way for me. I first had contact with Lil when her three children attended Sunday School, were JMA collectors, and later members of the Youth Club. This was the beginning of a long and happy relationship.
Lil was a friend to many outside the Church, and frequently visited those who were unwell at home, in hospital, or needed help in other ways. She helped with Youth Club work - mainly on the “kitchen front” and was a regular member of the Guild. Although she did not attend Church services in later years, she always supported financially.
One of her many talents was knitting - making many garments, even several beautiful Bedspreads, as well as the numerous blankets and knitted squares for Oxfam. Many, too, will remember her as the lady out walking her two little dogs. She often said this daily exercise kept her going.
Lil will be sadly missed by her many friends, but affectionately remembered.
