Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care (RGPHC) has launched its first CompassionART Café and a new partnership with a St Albans landmark.
The new CompassionART Café, which launched last month at Café on the Corner on Catherine Street, gives people an opportunity to express themselves through art and crafts. The café will take place on the first Thursday of every month between 2pm and 3.30pm.
The charity also launched a new Compassionate Café at St Albans Cathedral, in partnership with the historic site and Abbot’s Kitchen, on Monday, April 7. It will take place on the first Monday of each month from 2pm to 3.30pm. As well as giving people a space to talk to others about their loss, trained volunteers will be on hand to provide support.
Alison May, community engagement manager at RGPHC, said: “Art can be a fantastic way to convey emotions and reduce stress, so we’re pleased to be launching our new CompassionART Café to bring this support to local people.”
