ALT Manchester Cathedral Cathedral Theological Conversations Thursday 19th June 2025, 7pm Theology and Immigration As part of refugee week 2025, Ros Holland, Chief Executive of Boaz Trust, will be talking about immigration, theology and the work of Boaz. The Boaz Trust was founded by Dave Smith in 2004, as an outworking of his Christian faith. The aim was to address the needs of the growing numbers of people facing destitution in Greater Manchester whose asylum cases had been refused and who had nowhere to turn for help. The vision of Boaz Trust is that people who seek safety in the UK are welcomed here and are free to live life in all its fullness. Ross Holland Boaz Trust
