2023 - 3: Faith and Grief

The Rev Kate Bottley is in Leicestershire to explore how faith and the Bible can help people through one of the greatest challenges in life, the loss of a loved one.

She meets Abi May, the founder of 'Living with Loss' Christian retreats which help people go through their journey of grief and find a way forward after bereavement. She speaks to some of those who've attended a retreat to learn how it helped them find comfort and solace after their loss. In Liverpool, Kate hears about GraveTalk, a unique CofE initiative where people can come together to share their thoughts and questions about bereavement, dying and funerals in a friendly, helpful space.

And Mike Palmer, one of the '3 Dads Walking' tells Kate about how his faith helped him in the aftermath of his teenage daughter's suicide and the inspirational walk he undertook with two other bereaved fathers across the UK to raise awareness.
