Film entitled 'Reverend Leon Atkin'. Reverend Leon Atkin was a Methodist and Congregational minister, human rights activist, and politician. His church was St Paul's Congregational, St Helens Road, Swansea. The crypt of St Paul's became a refuge for homeless people, particularly during the bitter winter of 1946-47, and they were welcomed each Christmas. With his beret and clerical collar Leon Atkin was a well-known figure, admired by people with little time for churches, ministers or organised religion. Length: 00:05:27
