Pastoral Care

The Pastoral Care role has recently been transferred to Sheila Rowland.

As we are all aware, such is life that challenges previously not encountered regarding one’s health, or that of a loved one, can impact unexpectedly and traumatically on anyone – and they don’t come with a handbook on how to cope! It is therefore proposed to extend the existing pastoral care role by creating links with relevant charities and organisations which provide valuable information, advice and sometimes support, for innumerable hardships in life – be it illness, disability, caring responsibilities, bereavement, loneliness, financial problems, IT issues, ageing – an endless list! This information will be relayed via monthly newsletters, displays of publications, at suitable u3a events and in response to personal (confidential) requests..
