Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, has argued that reparations for slavery would be punishment for a collective group. This view contrasts with recent discussions in Britain about learning from the Dutch government's apology for slavery. The UK has also committed to time-bound talks on a similar apology. Meanwhile, the Church in Wales is exploring ways to make its churches more welcoming for individuals with disabilities, and the need for bereavement support is growing.
