Restorative Training for Portsmouth Churches

  • St Margaret's Church Highland Road Southsea (map)

Portsmouth Mediation Service (PMS) is seeking to help make Portsmouth a Restorative City where communities have stronger relationships. A message from PMS:

We are working towards setting up community hubs across Portsmouth. Each hub will have a team of people restoratively trained to help people experiencing conflict. They will be there to listen, to help people voice their thoughts and feelings, to help people find a way forward and to restore relationships where possible. 

This training day provides a great opportunity for churches to partner up with the Community Hubs vision. Churches are known for helping to meet people’s physical needs through food banks, pantries and meals. How great it would be for churches to be known for their peace and reconciliation skills!! 

Coming to this training doesn’t commit you or your congregation to anything. However, we believe it will positively change the way you individually approach relationships and conflict. However, if after doing the training you would like to speak to PMS about implementing your restorative skills in your church/group and/or setting up a Community Hub please don’t hesitate to contact us, we would love to help you to do this. 

This training has been funded by ‘Love Portsmouth’ so there are no costs to you. To secure your place and to ensure we provide enough food and refreshment’s, please book your space by emailing: laura@portsmouthmediationservice.org.uk
