In this eye-opening and informative episode, Hannah Macintyre sits down with the wonderfully organised and passionate Veronica Jenkins—a lifelong spiritualist, headteacher-turned-directory-queen, and champion of evidential mediumship. Together they explore the vital role of churches in the spiritualist movement, how lockdown shifted everything, and why we need both faith and structure to move this work forward.

This insightful and encouraging episode covers:

• Veronica’s journey into Spiritualism and mediumship—and how it all began in a Nottingham church
• The evolution of development circles and how learning mediumship used to require an invitation
• How lockdown led to Veronica launching a whole new spiritual mission—daily event listings and directories
• Her creation of the UK Spiritualist Venues and Mediums directories, now available on Amazon
• The highs and lows churches are facing today—from full rooms to nearly empty ones
• The differences between Christian, Spiritualist, and Christian Spiritualist churches
• A breakdown of what really happens in a Spiritualist service (hint: there’s tea and sometimes dodgy hymns!)
• Why evidential mediumship—not just psychic insight—is the heart of spiritualist belief
• Her work supporting churches, booking mediums, and building accessible online systems
• How spirit is guiding her next steps—and why she’s happy to take it one step at a time

Whether you’re curious about spiritualist churches, looking for a service to attend, or wondering how mediumship training used to work, this episode is packed with wisdom, laughs, and practical spiritual insight.
