‘Tackling bullying, changing culture and enabling positive relationships’:
A series of webinars from the Methodist Church
Following her virtual travels around the connexion our current Vice President, Carolyn Lawrence, has heard accounts of members who have experienced bullying and poor behaviour in different church contexts. After discussions with Connexional staff about these issues and what resources are available to help the church be better prepared in this area, work started to address how we can improve our overall awareness, the resources already available, and ability to take action when required.
We are therefore very pleased to present three specific webinars looking at different aspects of anti-bullying action. They are designed for all church leaders with the Methodist Church and any other members and officers who are interested in how we can continue our journey of making churches and church work safer for everyone involved.
Webinar 2: Reconciling Communities: Living Well with Difference
13th May 2021, 11.00 am - 12.30 pm

17th June 2021, 11.00 am - 12.30 pm
