Chaplaincy

ChapelThe Chaplaincy and Spiritual Care Team serves all members of the University and supports prospective students, graduates and associates of our community.

We work with Student Enterprise & Development and Staff Development to help in providing a holistic framework of spiritual support. Not only can you meet with members of the Team, but you can also use our developing online resources for your own spiritual development.

We provide a rhythm of Christian prayer and worship throughout the year, in term-time and vacations and a place of prayer and quiet for the world religions.

It is easy to find the Chaplaincy: we offer a non-judgemental, confidential listening ear service. The Chaplaincy team members fully respect each person's identity and beliefs.

The Chapel Building, Prayer Room and Peace Garden are open to everyone. As well as daily services during term time, two local Churches meet on campus on Sundays and the student-led Christian Union has a main meeting on Thursdays plus small groups, special events and prayer meetings.

The Chaplaincy is funded by the University and the Diocese of York.
