Bereavement Support Group

I lift up my eyes to the hills.

From whence does my help come?

My help comes from the Lord,

who made heaven and earth.

                                                                      Psalm 121

The group meets on Friday afternoons from 2pm to 3.30pm in the Lower Meeting Room, Parish Hall, Church Lane, Kippax. The postcode for satnav users is LS25 7HF. We offer a safe, supportive and confidential environment for any who are finding the death of a loved one or friend difficult to bear.

However, we acknowledge that the pain of bereavement is very personal and that some may not wish to discuss their feelings in a group setting, therefore we also offer bereavement visits to an individual's home on request.

For further details, please contact Revd. Mandy Rhodes on 01977 670938 or 07971 998621.
