Bolton Interfaith Council

Bolton Interfaith Council Display

Monday 26 September - Friday 14 October

For three weeks we displayed information about Bolton Interfaith Council and the cohesion work it does. The display was in Chancellor's Mall for part of the time and then split between outside the Chaplaincy and in the Quiet Room.

The photographs were made as part of a documentary project showing the work of the Council over a year.
