Our Contemplation Trail

Sometimes our Bereavement Café takes place at Shugborough to use our Contemplation Trail – a peaceful outdoor space to walk, talk and reflect.

We'll update this page if the café is taking place at Shugborough. If you're unsure where to meet, please give us a call on 01785 270832.
