After visiting @khidmat_centres today to discuss a new youth-led resilience group with Dr Sofia Buncy, PC Huss & PC Hanif had the opportunity to meet and speak with the women’s group. The interaction included a short prayer for the loss of a family member of the group.
It was good to be invited to observe the work of the Bradford Court Chaplaincy Service. One can never underestimate the value of a listening ear, guidance and kindness when faced with challenging situations. Thank you to the team for their very important work.
