What does it mean to be a good friend? Is there a job description? What is certain, is that there is nothing quite like friendship. Much research has been done into the benefits of friendships and how they enrich our lives. This has gone on to show that strong social support will boost your happiness, improve self confidence and increase your sense of belonging and purpose.

As we celebrate National Best Friends Day on June 8th, why not visit us and purchase a card or gift for your friend or check out Phil Knox’s book ‘The Best of Friends’: with humour and wisdom, Phil Knox offers ‘practical advice to show us how to choose our friends wisely and maintain lasting, meaningful relationships’.

‘May we celebrate and cultivate one of God’s Greatest gifts to us. And may we experience the best of friends, be the best of friends and know the Best Friend of them all’. (Phil Knox author of ‘The Best of Friends’ ISBN 9781789744248)
