Living with Loss

HAVE YOU BEEN STRUGGLING SINCE THE LOSS OF YOUR LOVED ONE?

Come and join with others who have also experienced life-changing loss through bereavement. The aim of this supported retreat is to better equip us to deal with our life-changing loss. Through a creative variety of activities, including led sessions, discussions and quiet reflection, we explore the journey of grief, with a focus on finding a way forward in the changed circumstances of our lives. This is a gentle retreat with a Christian perspective, suitable for those who have lost a husband or wife, children or other close family members, or who have suffered multiple losses.

Abi May runs the ‘Living with Loss’ project, which is a member of the National Bereavement Alliance. She is an experienced retreat leader, author and educator, as well as being a bereaved mother. Her husband John has been active in Christian service for four decades.

“The content of the bereavement sessions was excellent and the approach varied, interactive and all very clearly presented.”

“I thought Abi led the sessions with sensitivity and compassion.”

“This was a first class retreat which I found extremely helpful.”

“I had no idea, really, what to expect this week. I am returning home feeling assured that I will survive and continue to take ‘small steps’ on my journey.”
