Recent Events

The mortal remains of Derrick Bird and those whose lives he ended have now been laid to rest. The media circus has left town. There are other events for them to focus on now - the budget and a history making tennis match between John Isner and Nicholas Mahut. The people of West Cumbria are free now to get on with the work of helping those impacted by Derricks' actions. And so much work is being done in communities and congregations to help one another come to terms with what happened. People are sharing their feelings and fears in a very special West Cumbrian way and they are working together to return their lives to some sense of normality.
