Welcome to Worsley Lourdes Group (HCPT Group 563)
Next pilgrimage: Summer 2026 | Location: Lourdes, France
We are The Worsley Lourdes Group (HCPT Group 563) in the Manchester Region. Many of us are parishioners of Holy Trinity Parish and surrounding parishes in Salford Diocese, and beyond into the wider Manchester and northwest regions.
Every 2 years we take children and adults on a weeks' pilgrimage to Lourdes where they are supported by our group nurse and a wonderful team of volunteer helpers. Wherever possible, we sponsor some children and adults in full or in part, so that finances are never a barrier to joining the pilgrimage. It costs in the region of £1300 to send someone to Lourdes.
Our goal is to raise £5000. Your donation will help us to provide a life-changing experience to children and adults. Only with your support, we can make this incredible experience possible for those who need it most.
Thank you for helping us share hope, healing, and happiness to as many people as we can.
