Manchester Walks are organizing two walks about the Peterloo Massacre on the actual Peterloo 200th year Anniversary.

More info > http://www.newmanchesterwalks.com/walks-tours/peterloo-massacre-on-the-streets-of-manchester/

These unique Peterloo tours have been devised by Ed Glinert, Penguin author and compiler of the forthcoming Manchester Encyclopaedia, who has conducted more recent research into the entire Peterloo story than any other historian (apart from the esteemed Dr Robert Poole, whose Peterloo book will be out soon). Glinert is also the only tour guide who has worked with both the campaigning journalist extraordinaire Paul Foot (author of Red Shelley) and Mike Leigh, director of the new Peterloo film.

The Committee thought there might be some interest within our members in joining one of these walks on
