Join us for an insightful session on providing spiritual
care to those who are dying. We will discuss some of the
fundamental elements involved in offering spiritual care,
such as compassionate presence and deep listening. We will
also explore different needs and challenges that can arise
in relation to the dying process, both for the dying person
and for carers.
All are welcome.
