Pet Service

A message from Reverend Hannah:

Dear Friends,
This Sunday morning, 11am, we are having a Pet Service at Bicton Church. You are most welcome to bring yours along! Equally, you don’t need a pet in order to attend (!)- all are warmly invited, as it’s an opportunity to thank God for our non-human friends and to celebrate the diversity of life we are blessed with, whatever our circumstances.
If you have a pet but he/she isn’t coming along, you could bring a toy version or something to represent them.
Do join us if you’d like to…
With Blessings,
Hannah x

Whether it’s noticing early signs, encouraging open conversations, or modelling calm responses, there are plenty of ideas here to support positive change.

Perfect for both school and home settings, the guide equips adults to identify subtle signals of stress and create safe spaces for pupils to open up. It also suggests mindful habits and healthy routines that can become part of daily life, promoting long-term emotional strength and mental wellbeing.
