An annual service spreading the message of "hope" is returning next week as the ECHO makes a final call for your submissions.
Readers may be familiar with the yearly Pause for Hope service, which has been running since 1999, providing support to those affected by cancer. The ECHO is again proud to support this service, which will be held on October 2 at the Metropolitan Cathedral.
We previously invited you to send your poems or 'Messages of Hope' directly to [email protected]. One message will then be chosen and will feature in the ECHO. The author will also be invited to read their message out at the service.
