This gentle weekend retreat is to help people who may be struggling with loss and grief following bereavement of a loved one. In the safe space of Whalley Abbey there will be opportunity for connecting with others who are also experiencing loss. There will be freedom for creative activities, time for reflection and places to walk around and near the Abbey.

People trained in grief and bereavement will be available to listen to you in confidence and be with you through the journey of the weekend. During the weekend, discussions about ways of understanding and coping with grief and the change that loss brings will take place. You can choose what you want to join in with or just relax. There will be a simple service of remembrance, prayer and hope in the chapel.

Book the date in your calendar! The booking link will be added very soon.
