Donate to the Forum

The Forum is run by a committee along with sub-groups of volunteers who give their time and energy to support and encourage the ministry of spiritual direction across the country. 

The costs of administration, website and Zoom events are met by donations by others who support this endeavour. ​

Our Team

The life of the forum depends on many people - our committee of trustees, three action groups, an administrator and many supporters. Meet our Co-Chairs and Administrator:
