Each Friday between 10:30am and 12:45pm, we meet, study, discuss and dive in deep to a chapter of the Bible, then eat lunch together. We are a small group of around 6 people. Everyone welcome to join to us as we work our way through another book of the Bible. No Bible knowledge is necessary and we work through the Bible in a way that everyone will understand.

50% of all adults will experience some type of Mental Health issue in life. We are a discussion based group and a safe space to explore our experiences of Mental Health. We meet each week at 7:15pm (for 7:30pm start) at the Oldhams Family Hub on Forfar Street, Oldhams Estate, BL1 6RN. Numbers are capped at 10 to enable everyone a chance to share. We work through a series of 26 structured sessions using the Hope Circle. This looks at five of the commonly held views - I hate myself, I don't matter, I don't fit in, I want to give up and I feel useless - challenging each participant to look at things afresh. An induction is required before coming along to the group.
