Has the art of accompaniment been lost in Western culture? Could
non-judgemental accompaniment be the answer to rising levels of
isolation and loneliness? Could spending time with others from
different or marginalised backgrounds reduce feelings of
'otherness' and lead to a more open, trusting society? Exploring
the themes above, this welcoming book offers models of
relationships, interdependence, and community for individuals who
are marginalised from society. It emphasises the importance of
being with people and time spent in physical activity and in the
natural world, without demands being put on expressing feelings or
even speaking out loud. It draws on the author's own vast
experience and work with those on the edge of society - including
living in a Christian community which welcomes those in terms of
crisis, living in a Palestinian village, working with adults with
autism and as chaplain to Gypsies and Travellers - providing a
varied, insightful and heart-warming view on the benefits of
accompaniment.
