We’re pleased to share a new resource by local historian Derek Benson: Anti-Slavery Activism in Tewkesbury. This important piece of research shines a light on the individuals and movements in our town who stood against slavery during the 18th and 19th centuries. Whether you’re from Tewkesbury or exploring the wider history of abolition across Britain, this work offers valuable insight into how local voices contributed to a global struggle for justice. We invite you to explore the research and discover a lesser-known chapter of Tewkesbury’s past.
