HCPT is a charity offering pilgrimage holidays, to Lourdes in the south of France, for disabled and disadvantaged people from around the UK and further afield. The Manchester Region is just one of many regions within HCPT. Our pilgrimage holidays are all about fun and friendship. Many describe their experience as positive and life affirming; something that they will value for the rest of their lives.

Every Easter, over 1,000 disabled and disadvantaged children enjoy a week in Lourdes, staying in hotels with their volunteer helpers. Children like Luke and John who recently travelled with HCPT.

Each Summer, over 1,500 people, many of them disabled adults, enjoy a week at HCPT’s Hosanna House in Bartrès, near Lourdes. People like Susan say they benefit so much from their stay.

We also offer self catering pilgrimage holidays in HCPT's Bartrès Villa near Lourdes.

HCPT is a Catholic charity and its services are open to all. Volunteers and beneficiaries come from all walks of life and from all faiths and none.

We are grateful for your support. For HCPT to continue helping children and adults in need, we rely on donations and volunteers. Thank you.
