💙 Reasons to Stay 💙
If you or someone you care about is struggling right now, this website is a beautiful reminder that you’re not alone. Reasons to Stay is a thoughtful, compassionate initiative created to offer support, hope, and gentle encouragement to anyone who needs a little help getting through tough moments.
Sometimes all it takes is a few kind words or a reminder that your life matters. This is a safe space to pause, breathe, and remember there are reasons (big and small) to keep going.
Please share this with anyone who might need it today. 🤍

Reasons to Stay is a su***de prevention project reaching people at difficult moments through anonymous letters written by volunteers. Each letter on this site was written by a real person and delivered to you at random when you visited this page.

Great to have new people with us today, especially younger members learning about keeping our environment tidy.

Thank you to the lovely family we recently supported for their thoughtful words and delicious biscuits, given in loving memory of their dad, who always brought a sweet treat whenever he went to his appointments. 🩵

❤️ Hand to Heart ❤️

We now have these knitted hearts available in the chapel for families to take.

They are offered as a small comfort—one to place with your loved one, and one to take with you, to keep them close.

Our heartfelt thanks to Dawn from Willow Wood Hospice for lovingly knitting these and bringing them to us. Your kindness and care mean so much to the families we support.

Today we pause for Holocaust Remembrance Day—not just to remember history, but to honour the lives behind the numbers.

Six million Jewish people were murdered, alongside millions of others targeted for who they were. Each had a name, a family, a future that was stolen. Remembering them is an act of respect, but also of responsibility.

The Holocaust did not begin with camps—it began with words, with silence, with the normalisation of hatred and the turning away of ordinary people. That truth makes remembrance uncomfortable, but necessary. It asks us to look honestly at our world today and at our own choices.

Our yearly Creme Egg collection in support of Willow Wood Hospice has launched. If you are able, please drop off with us during office hours.

It's that time of year again when we support the Willow Wood Hospice creme egg appeal. They need 8,000 creme eggs for the children who take part in their annual Bunny Hop which raises much needed funds.
You can donate by popping them into our donation boxes or by delivering them to the Willow Wood shop on Oldham Road. As usual, our main collection point is at Perry Jones Funeral Services on Oldham Road where Emma will be delighted to see you. The appeal will run until the 6th March to allow time for distribution.
Thanks for every one you can donate, every egg counts and we'll keep you updated with our progress. 🐣🐤🥚
