Sharing Care - Older People

A four-week course to support and encourage all those who care for older people in our communities in any of many ways. 

It was written with laity particularly in mind, but clergy are very welcome too.  Across the diocese, this course will be delivered by trained people who will encourage and equip participants in their ministry with older people, valuing the particular experiences and insights which each person will bring to the course and inviting participation at all levels. 

Participants required: 10 - 16.

It is hoped that by the end of the course, participants will feel more confident about accompanying others on their journey through grief.

Participants required: 10 - 16.
