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.

Holiday Cleaning

During the school holidays we have no cleaners in the building and so we would be grateful for your help.

It would be helpful if I could have a rota of people who could help after the coffee morning each Saturday to make sure the building is clean and fresh for Sunday. Please sign the list on the notice board if you can help.

This is also a good time to do some extra cleaning so I plan to have a cleaning morning on Wednesday 23rd July starting at 9.30am for those who can help.

Many thanks

Barbara
