Let's talk about dementia

Thackley Methodist Church
29 January 2-4pm 


We all know someone with dementia, or perhaps we ourselves have a diagnosis. Let’s talk about it, and about how we can best help people in our churches to cope with what it means for them.
Revd Gaynor Hammond, a Baptist minister who has presented workshops and written books on growing dementia-friendly churches, will come to Thackley Methodist Church on 29 January 2-4pm to lead a workshop.
Come and share your experiences, ask your questions, find support.
Please let Rev Christine Crabtree know you are coming, so we can be sure of making enough tea!

Methodist Women in Britain

Ladies of the Bradford North Circuit, welcome to an introduction to MWiB! Methodist Women in Britain is a movement within the Methodist Church, which seeks to resource individual women and women's groups in a variety of ways. It came into being in July 2011, formed through the coming together of Women's Network and other women's meetings within Methodism. MWiB is more than a meeting. Many women may feel that it is not for them, because they do not already attend a women's meeting. The movement is there for ALL women in Methodism. There are opportunities for meetings within circuits, and at District and Connexional levels, which are all held on a regular basis. MWiB seeks to offer a broader menu for women today. There are many opportunities to meet locally, nationally and internationally. Resources are available for individuals to use at home, at work or within their families. MWiB is very active nationally; details of events can be found in the Methodist R

Events during the year included a harvest supper and entertainment, a Gilbert & Sullivan evening, a comedy night, a Church Anniversary social, Action For Children Christmas Fayre and concerts by Village Voices, Aire Valley Male Voice choir and Woodhouse Grove School. In the autumn, the Church hosted a visit by a group of young Palestinian dan
