The Chaplaincy Centre

We are a welcoming and engaging place for people of all faiths and none. We offer space for exploring issues of spirituality and building community, or just a quiet place to eat your lunch.

Covid-19 Working Procedures

The chaplaincy team may not be around as much as usual, but we remain a place of vibrant diversity and inclusive welcome. Chaplains are available for students and staff of any faith or none to offer 1-1 pastoral/emotional support, and groups are meeting for worship online or in person. To arrange to speak with a chaplain, or to find out about a specific group, please email chaplaincy@lancaster.ac.uk.

Vibrant. Diverse. Inclusive.

Any faith or none, there is a place for you here.
