Excellent video. I have watched all your videos and enjoy them all. I must tell you my grandmother was from Yorkshire, and she took me to see The Beatles in 1964 when I was 11 years old because she wanted me to see" some nice English lads". True story! Regards from British Columbia, Canada

Saltaire is such a beautiful village built out of Yorkshire stone when I went I can remember thinking I wonder what Titus would think if he was to see it today I imagine he would be surprised that the mill is no longer making anything cloth.

Not sure how I missed this upload, but it was a great one. I've always been fascinated by Saltaire and places like it, nice to see an industrialist with a conscience! If only some of todays billionaires would look after their workers in a similar manner, instead of caring for nothing but the share price. No pubs though, thats a bit rough.

My friends and I were wondering how the tramway came into being. It's closed so no-one to ask. Is it something you know about?

The testimony of Sir Titus Salt is yet again another example of a great man of God who was motivated through his Christian faith. In the United Kingdom our culture, laws, democratic institutions, architecture, literature, art and science have all been profoundly influenced by Christianity and cannot be understood without reference to it. Christianity has played a major part in many of the great social reforms in our history: the creation of schools and hospitals, the abolition of slavery, the improvement of working conditions and the protection of children. 1) William Wilberforce who was a politician and John Newton who were both devout believers were the forerunners who fought for the abolation of slavery in this nation. 2) George Muller a devout Christian who was the one highlighting children on the streets was called by God to open up many homes and orphanages which resulted in rescuing children from the work houses. 3) General Booth devout Christian founder of the salvation Army tackled poverty and injustice in this nation. 4) Education and schools introduced for the masses started by two Christian men, William King and Robert Raikes who wanted to help poor children get an education and so they started the first Sunday Schools in their own home towns, Dursley and Gloucester. 5) The police force started by devout Christian Robert Peel born (1788-1850) who was twice Prime Minister of England (1834-1835 and 1841-1846) and twice Home Secretary (1822-1827 and 1828-1830). He is one of the founders of the modern British Conservative Party. As Home Secretary, he introduced a number of important reforms of British criminal law: most memorably establishing the Metropolitan Police Force (Metropolitan Police Act 1829) for London. It was the enabling legislation for the first English police force, the “bobbies” (in England) or “peelers” (in Ireland), which served as the model for modern urban police departments throughout England. He also reformed the criminal law, reducing the number of crimes punishable by death, and simplified it by repealing a large number of criminal statutes and consolidating their provisions into what are known as Peel’s Acts. He reformed the gaol system, introducing payment for gaolers and education for the inmates. 6)Social services. Social work practice has been around for many years. The earliest origins date back to the middle ages with church-based ministering to the poor. This would later evolve into the start of the social justice movements in the 19th century. The folk tradition lasted in Europe during the early Christian era, and the faithful considered it a religious obligation to care for those members of the group who were unable to care for themselves. The greatest source of charitable motivation was Christianity. The church, particularly the monasteries, became distribution centres for food, medical aid, and shelter. The parish priest and other clerics who knew the individuals and their circumstances gave alms collected in the parish. Social work evolved from the Church's charity focus to the role of the state in public welfare. The movements and organisations that began in the United Kingdom. 7) Hospitals and health care. Christianity brought caring communities with indiscriminate personalised care for the ill and aged. This ultimately led to the creation of hospitals as we know them today. Monastic institutions appeared which often had hospitals, and provided care. 8) Nursing proffession started through Florence Nightingale another devout Christian who felt called by God. Her greatest achievement was to transform nursing into a respectable profession for women and in 1860, she established the first professional training school for nurses, the Nightingale Training School at St Thomas' Hospital. Look at British history and you will see that everything in this nation that is good was founded upon Christianity.

Not at all. It’s a city with problems but there is two sides to it and we need to acknowledge the positives, not just the negatives.
