The BBC and ‘The Church That Changed’

St James and Emmanuel is ‘The Church That Changed’

On Monday 24th September 2018 Lizzie Lowe and our church’s journey of repentance and new life caught the attention of the nation.

Abbie Jones* of BBC North West followed our church as it prepared to host Didsbury Pride. In the process she also met members of Withington Deanery – the first fully inclusive deanery in England. The films that Abbie has produced are incredibly powerful and you can view them below.

The second film can be viewed below…

*Abbie won the 2019 Best TV Journalist Award for her BBC report ‘The Church That Changed’ at the O2 Media Awards on 7 November 2019.
