The work of Sunrise Partnership continues under new management after Founder Eileen Wheeler retired. The real heart of Sunrise Partnership is to fill a gap where many bereaved children and young people were falling through the net in terms of care and counselling. Sunrise Partnership helps young people through the process of grieving for as long as it takes. Methods to achieve this have had to change because of Covid 19 but the ethos remains the same.
Brian's scripture selection is John 16:33
I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
