Later life often comes with a number of challenges, not least the increasing loss of loved ones. In the Bible we find helpful examples of how people mourned their losses, and even Jesus wept when his friend Lazarus died. Helping older people who have been bereaved, either recently or some time ago, to receive effective bereavement support is important and can make a tremendous difference to their later life flourishing.
That’s why we’re looking forward to welcoming Katy Tutt from AtaLoss, and The Bereavement Journey, to our online Church Champions events on Thursday November 14th. Katy has worked for AtaLoss since August 2020 and is based at home in rural mid-Wales.As General Manager of The Bereavement Journey®, she supports churches in the UK and overseas to offer the programme to their congregations and communities. At the time of writing, there are over 370 course locations as well as a national, online course which runs three times per year. Katy enjoys walking her two dogs, and singing in several choirs. Katy says, “‘As church champions, you will certainly be aware of the
acute problems that being bereaved in later life can present, particularly in relation to the loneliness that can be felt after the death of a loved one. I’m looking forward to speaking to you about how
bereavement support can ease that loneliness and help people to come to a place of hope.”
