With speakers such as Sr. Margaret Aitkins OSA, Blackfriars Oxford, and Grenfell activist Sandra Ruiz; videos by young people who live their faith in practical ways made especially for our young people; and the opportunity to visit nearby projects, CPW Kintbury offers a safe space to question, listen and discover together some of the issues around eucharistic traditions".

Malvern - The Challenge of Parenting in the 21st Century

Meanwhile the Malvern team, chaired by Mary Huckfield and Hannah Beattie, have invited some fascinating speakers to speak at the Malvern CPW to help participants consider what actions our faith might lead us to in our homes, places of work and parishes. Pamela Perry is a founding member of Parishioners' Call and a member of CWO (Catholic Women's Ordination). She will be speaking about Women/Girls and the Catholic Church on a day which is being called 'The One About the Mothers'. The day will be a celebration of Mary and all women of faith. Rosie Russell is a Mental Health Practitioner who works with children, teenagers and adults in the area of mental health. The chaplain is Fr Mike Fitzsimmons.
