Lorraine Pickles

I am an ordained OneSpirit Interfaith minister based in Bristol.  I was ordained in 2016. I am a retired social worker and counsellor, have worked as a chaplain, and a volunteer in a local hospice.

I have a particular interest in creating bespoke, meaningful funerals. I have a love of poetry and music, and this is reflected in my ceremonies.

As I age myself, I feel passionately about helping empower older women to lead the best life they can.

My own spirituality is predominantly earth-based, but I feel my ministry essentially includes those on the edge – those who have no established faith path, or those who find themselves still looking for a way home.
the margins for what and are looking to find their way home. home.
