Welcome to our home page

Greater Manchester Humanists were founded in 1992 (though under a different name). We believe an earlier group was active in Manchester from the 1950s until the mid-1970s.

We are affiliated to the British Humanist Association and the National Secular Society.

As Humanists, we are concerned with values and moral issues from a non-religious standpoint. Like many people in our largely secular society, we have done our best to work these out for ourselves, and are constantly re-assessing them in the light of changing circumstances.

We are also actively concerned to apply our values and to work towards the achievement of a more open, just and caring society.
