All couples are expected to attend a day programme which is run twice a year, for 2010 in March and July.  Any couples who cannot attend the days or who come to us after the courses are run are referred to either Winchester or Southampton.  The course covers the following areas:  Communication and Relationships; Building up your Marriage; Managing Conflict; Sexuality in Marriage and Vocation and Sacrament.  The format is similar for each session, some input followed by the individuals completing an individual informal questionnaire, then getting together as couples to discuss the results, and followed if appropriate by a larger group discussion.   

 

The parish office (at St Edward the Confessor Church) acts as the contact point and sends out details to all the couples.
