Plots and Plotters and the Belfast Charitable Society
This Easter, Clifton House, the home of the Belfast Charitable Society and the original Poor House in Belfast, is running a special series of online talks.

Plots and Plotters, Belfast Charitable Society and the 1798 Rebellion will take place at 6pm on the 7th, 8th and 9th April 2021 live from Belfast, via Zoom. 

The one-hour talk will explore the history of the reformers and rebels who made the Belfast Charitable Society a “hotbed of radical activity” in the 1790s. Hear about the Joys, McCrackens, McCabe & Cunningham who were on opposing sides of the 1798 United Irishmen Rebellion & how the Charitable Society, and its members, emerged from it, including Dr James Campbell White who went into exile in the United States.

Tickets are £5 per device (not per person). To find out more, or to book, please visit https://cliftonbelfast.com/whats-on/talks/
