Tuesday talk:
Venerable Elizabeth Prout: Angel of the Manchester Slums

With journalist Robert Pegg

6pm, Tuesday 15th October, in the Chaplaincy Portakabin

Manchester commemorates ‘great men’ like Engels. Why not his contemporary, Blessed Elizabeth Prout? A fascinating account on this Victorian-era nun who devoted her life to educating the poor and why she deserves her own statue.
