Restored Lives

What is Restored Lives?

The Restored Lives course supports and empowers people to move forward from relationship breakdown.

Do you need help recovering from relationship breakdown? The Restored Lives course supports and empowers people to move forward from divorce and separation, or the breakdown of any serious relationship, to live a full life, free from past issues.

Restored Lives has helped thousands of people over 20 years and has been developed by divorcees and professionals working together. Whatever your situation, background or belief, it gives you emotional and practical support to recover from relationship breakdown in a safe, non-judgemental environment.

Although you may feel isolated, you are not alone. Come on a course to meet people in a similar situation and listen to expert advice as well as numerous stories from people who have successfully moved on.

We will be running our current Restored Lives courses online as part of the larger Restored Lives course run through HTB. The course will take place across 8 consecutive Monday evenings, exactly as though you were attending in person, except that you will be able to do so from the comfort of your own home! All you need to do is register for the course and we will be in touch regarding further instructions.

View personal stories on YouTube from people who have restored their lives with the help of the course.


Who is it for?

The course is for any person who is separated, or who is currently going through a divorce or is already divorced, either recently or at any time in the past.  The course is run by a church and is based on Christian values but is not religious in content, it is for people of all faiths and none. It is both practical and supportive, giving any separated or divorced person the opportunity to discuss the challenges they are facing and the tools to deal with these effectively.

What can I expect?

The sessions will be run via Zoom. Each evening begins with a talk, followed by opportunities for discussion in small groups. The small groups are led by people who have gone through divorce themselves. The setting is welcoming, relaxed and unthreatening.

Topics covered include:

  • Facing the effects of separation and divorce

  • The importance of good communication

  • Resolving conflict

  • Forgiveness and letting go

  • Divorce – the legal issues

  • Parenting issues

  • Moving forward with hope
