Parish visitors help our vicar by providing pastoral support where it is needed in the Benefice and are available to come alongside anyone who is:
bereaved
unwell
depressed
lonely
… and the list goes on
Parish Visitors are able to support anyone of any faith or none. They treat all issues with complete confidentiality and do not evangelise. They can be a sounding board.
There are 12 Parish Visitors who have been trained and were commissioned by the Rev Jonah Watts to work in our Benefice.
They are: Vanessa Eales, Rosalind Thoday, Mary Timms, Penny Bowes, Ron Pont, Molly Pont, Anne Salkeld, Sheila Lees, Carol Kennedy, Sheila Gawthorpe, Jane Roots and Elaine Izard.
