As the final preparations for the Visit of the Holy Father are now underway, there are still some opportunities for pilgrims from the Salford Diocese to travel to Cofton Park for the Beatification Mass of Cardinal Newman, celebrated by His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI.

If you would like to go but have not been able to get a pass, please read on...

Please find below a list of those Pilgrim Points which still have spare seats on coaches. If you are interested in attending, please contact Father Simon Stamp by e-mail at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it leaving your full name, postal address, e-mail address, telephone number and mobile number.

Please also indicate which Pilgrim Point you would like to travel from and the Parish in which you normally attend Mass. The contribution to the cost of coach travel and the Pilgrim Pack is £25 per head, to be given to your Parish Priest.

Please be aware that spare passes will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Thank you!
