Christian perspectives on General Election issues (A series of lectures)

Every Monday at for 1 hour
Salisbury Cathedral
West Walk Salisbury, SP1 2EJ, United Kingdom

The Cathedral is delighted to host an ecumenical Lent Lecture programme with speakers from across the churches of Salisbury. Together we aim to reflect on big themes that will dominate UK news as we head towards a General Election and which voters will be considering as they go to the ballot box.
