Many people did, the main 4 were William Wilberforce, Olaudah Equiano, Granville Sharp and Mary Prince.
Also one other important person was Jonathan Strong who ran away as a slave and was being badly beaten up by his owner. That was when Granville Sharp has saw him being tortured and took him to court to make him free.
