Drop in sessions –
Are you a youth leader? Has one of your youth group recently had a bereavement? Do you feel confident to support them? Are you fed up with all these rhetorical questions? Can you spell rhetorical without spell check correcting your spelling?
ListeningPeople (Pete English) is offering a drop in where you can come along and ask for some advice/tips/resources. Stay as long or as short a time as you wish. It will be a confidential space. Contribute what you can afford but come anyway and get some support with a very difficult subject.
Pete has been doing youth work for a very, very long time, is a counsellor in schools and has been specialising in bereavement and young people for over 20 years. Here’s a quote that I made up, “Pete is very lovely and knows a few things which would be unhelpful in a pub quiz but great for supporting young people through loss.”
