Pastoral accompaniment at the end of life

Aim of training: The purpose of this training session is to equip and enable pastoral carers and ministers to accompany those within our churches and communities who are at the end of their life.

Working with shame

The workshop will explore shame from a biopsychosocial perspective with reference to various shame models including Shame Containment Theory. It will look at the origins of shame in people’s lives and the growing impact it can have over time. It is well known that Adverse Childhood Experiences can have a detrimental impact on adult life, patterns of behaviour and relationships, and shame can play a part in that.
