Mothering Sunday

On Mothering Sunday, the Rev Kate Bottley joins mums at a baby massage class. Laura Wright meets a mother who believes her prayers were answered when she nearly died on a walk in Derby.

The Rev Kate Bottley is in Derbyshire, celebrating Mothering Sunday with mums from across the generations. She joins a baby massage class run by Nicky Daubney and hears about the role faith and human touch played in helping one baby recover from sepsis.

We visit Woodleigh Christian Care Home in nearby Mansfield and share in a daughter鈥檚 joy as she hugs her 92-year-old mum for the first time in months. Laura Wright meets Pip Peacock who, back in 2019, prayed for help when she nearly died after being trampled by a herd of cows whilst out walking in the Peak District, and we meet Katherine and Hannah, a mother and daughter who help to run the youth group at Reach Church in Derby.

There鈥檚 also new music from Reach including the family favourite My Lighthouse, and the young choir Perfect Pitch perform The Lord Bless You and Keep You at the stunning Derbyshire stately home, Chatsworth House.
