We are pleased to let you know that our next Common Awards webinar will be held on Thursday 16th February from 1.30-3pm, and is entitled 'Trauma, Theology and Pastoral Care' with Dr Delroy Hall and Dr Katie Cross.

Dr Hall is a counsellor with over 30 years’ experience in a range of settings including churches, the NHS and universities. His PhD focussed on black pastoral care in Britain and his recent book A Redemption Song (SCM press, 2021) addresses the themes of racial trauma, pastoral care and theology. Dr Katie Cross is Lecturer in Theology at the University of Aberdeen where one of her major research and teaching areas is feminist trauma theology. She has co-edited two books in this area including Bearing Witness: Intersectional Perspectives on Trauma Theology (SCM Press, 2022) and Feminist Trauma Theologies: Body, Scripture and Church in Critical Perspective (SCM Press, 2020).
