In June 2025, Emma from Tewkesbury Voices visited the Old Library at St John’s College, Cambridge, to explore a powerful exhibition featuring rare documents related to British history and the transatlantic slave trade. Her blog highlights key items on display, including the original 1807 bill presented to Parliament by William Wilberforce and the investigative diary of Thomas Clarkson, which played a vital role in the abolition campaign.
