The Chaplain to the University is Revd Dr Donald MacEwan. The Chaplaincy is a University department which enhances the life and experience of students and staff in all sorts of ways. We offer worship in the beautiful medieval chapels on Sundays, weekdays, Christmas, graduation, andother times of year. The Chaplaincy team offer pastoral care for any student or member of staff, regardless of faith o
r philosophy of life. This could be a sympathetic, confidential listening ear, support in emotional issues, a safe place to explore questions of faith or sexuality, someone to talk to in a crisis, or support when all else fails. To arrange to meet Donald, the Chaplain, email him on [email protected]. To meet with one of the Assistant Chaplains, contact Samantha on [email protected], or Bill on [email protected] or email the secretaries on [email protected] or call 01334 462866 or drop by the Chaplaincy. We support people of different faiths, providing honorary chaplains, space in the Chaplaincy building (called Mansefield, across from the Union), and we sponsor the Interfaith Steering Group, which runs wonderfully stimulating events. We have a range of facilities available for both student groups and individuals, including small and large meeting rooms, kitchen, garden, and quiet meditation/prayer spaces. Should you or your group wish to book any of our facilities please contact the Chaplaincy secretaries who will be happy to assist you.
