Who is it for? New Beginnings is a support group for anyone who has suffered a divorce, separation or broken relationship. The aim of the course is to help people to come to terms with the past and make a fresh start in a friendly and supportive atmosphere. People come along who are at every stage, from not having made the split to having been divorced many years but still working on some issues.
What's involved? New Beginnings holds a divorce and separation recovery course twice a year. We start each week with a meal at 7.30 pm for those who can make it and then hear a talk followed by a small group discussion (though you don't have to say anything if you don't want to) finishing at 10 pm. The course is free and is based on Christian principles but is not Christian promoting in any way. It is open to everyone.
Although we deal with difficult issues we find that during the evening there is a lot of laughter. People have a good time and gain support from the group.
Support Group
As well as the the course itself New Beginnings acts as an ongoing support group for divorced and separated people providing practical support, friendship and a new social network. We also have a variety of well attended and fun social events such as meals together, cinema trips etc.
We also provide support for people as they go through the legal process of separation and divorce.
What people have said: "It's been like an oasis." "Words can't express the positive feelings that have come from this course." "New friends, new hope, greater confidence."
Be Brave Many people find it hard to come to the first evening but after that they look forward to it and soon find they have made really good friends.
