Featured Events in Old Guildford in June 2025 (May Updated)

Anxiety levels and struggles with mental health are on the rise in children and young people. But there are ways that you can make a difference and help your children build more resilience and take steps towards healthier mental wellbeing. A Mind of Their Own is packed with simple and effective strategies for you to use at home, helping you to better understand what’s going on in your child’s head. Together with Katharine Hill and Mark Chester , featuring interviews with mental health professionals, Dr Rob Waller and Dr Kate Middleton, we’ll explore the science of the mind, and why children act and react the way they do. You’ll leave with: A greater understanding of the pressures affecting your child and the impact this can have on their mental wellbeing Tools to help your child build resilience that enables them to bounce back from challenges, grow in emotional strength and move forward in their character development Ways to talk to your child about positive body image An appreciation of how vital your child’s identity is and strategies to help them become confident in it Tips to help your child learn to deal with failure and criticism well The knowledge that negative thought patterns can be rewired to become more positive What to expect ... At Care for the Family, we have a dedicated team of people working hard to make sure all our events are high quality, professional and the best they can be. This event is well-researched, well-rehearsed, well-presented. Most importantly, it will be worth your time. Our speakers might know the research and have a breadth of knowledge on the subject, but mainly they’re parents and not perfect ones! We can’t promise that this evening will make you the world's best parent, but we can promise to lift you up and encourage you on your parenting journey.

The Rt Hon Sir Jeremy Hunt MP joins us on Friday 6 June to discuss his new book and the questions it raises. Britain has been through a difficult period since the global financial crisis, leading many to conclude the country is doomed to inevitable decline. But Jeremy Hunt, who was at the top of government as both Foreign Secretary and Chancellor, disagrees. In his new book, Can We Be Great Again? , he sets out to rebut those who think Britain is no longer capable of shaping the world we live in. With the election of president Trump, a world that was already becoming more dangerous has also become more unpredictable. But when it comes to the big challenges facing the world – whether on European security, the future of democracy, migration, trade and climate – the UK remains one of the most influential countries and should, Hunt says, use that influence wisely. Hunt does not shy away from the UK’s weaknesses but argues that they should be considered in perspective and without underestimating this country’s many strengths. After leaving school, Sir Jeremy studied at Oxford University, where he graduated with a first class honours degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics. He was elected Conservative MP for South West Surrey in 2005. He was first appointed Secretary of State for Health in September 2012, and then served as Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs July 2018 - July 2019. In October 2022, Sir Jeremy was appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer. He served as Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer from July to November 2024. On 4th July 2024, following Parliamentary boundary changes, Sir Jeremy has been elected as the Member of Parliament for the new Godalming and Ash constituency. Before his election as an MP, Sir Jeremy ran his own educational publishing business, Hotcourses. He also set up a charity to help AIDS orphans in Africa in which he continues to play an active role. Sir Jeremy divides his time between Westminster and his constituency home in Surrey with his wife, son and two daughters. Information Source: University of Surrey Events | eventbrite

On Friday evening, the 13th, we will have a praise and worship night. All are welcome, but the focus will be on our youth and for them to invite their friends as an outreach opportunity. On Saturday afternoon, we invite you all to join us for a social event, where you can rekindle old friendships, make new friends and enjoy a fun afternoon of good food and fellowship. Wouldn’t it be amazing to reunite with old “Shofarites” to share old and new stories and testimonies! This event will follow with an evening of worship and a session with Ps.Yinka Oyekan (former president of the Baptist Union of Great Britain and senior pastor of The Gate in Reading). Yinka is the founder of The Turning, through which he has led several missions throughout the UK and Europe. He was also one of the speakers at the Shofar Convergence Conference in 2022 and 2024. On Sunday, we will have our church launch service in the morning with Pastor Heinrich Titus (leader of Shofar International) and his wife, Nikki, all the way from South Africa - what a privilege! And what is a celebration without cake! Join us for tea and cake after the service. A light lunch will also be provided for those who want to stay a bit longer. This is optional and can be purchased through registration. During the weekend, we are so blessed to have James Pringle ( leader of Shofar Worship globally) and Rikus Jonck (from Shofarband) with us, they will be leading us in praise and worship. Our church service on Sunday will be a combined service with Shofar Wimbledon and invited leaders of the Guildford community. As we are partnering with Barnabas Churches UK, they will also be joining and supporting us during the weekend. For those with little ones, there will be Children’s Church on Sunday morning during the service, and a live stream of Saturday night’s session to the Children’s room, for parents to watch while children play with toys and craft activities available.
