Have you heard about the new listening service in Birmingham? It’s called Rapha, and it’s based in Alum Rock; just off the Alum Rock Road.​

Rapha has been set up by Bethel Health and Healing Network so that local people can have somewhere to go where they can talk to someone in confidence about whatever is on their minds and be listened to. Listened to in a way which is not judgmental. Listened to by someone who has been professionally trained to hear and understand.​

Life can, at times appear as though it`s moving way too quickly, taking us in a direction we had not imagined it would, with no one having time to listen anymore – including friends and family.
