About the Chaplaincy

Due to the pandemic, none of our services are currently operating face to face, but many are now offered digitally. Please look at the Sunderland University Chaplaincy Facebook page for current details, or email chris.howson@sunderland.ac.uk The Chaplain can always be contacted on 07846099643 and will happily help connect you to the most appropriate member of the chaplaincy team. Thanks and blessings to you in these difficult times.

 The Chaplaincy team are here to be:

• A friendly, informal, confidential and independent listening ear for staff and students alike
• A resource for religious, spiritual and ethical exploration
• A support for students and student societies, a source of information about local places of worship and faith communities
• An encourager of creative links between the University and the wider community.
• Above all, the Chaplaincy team share with others in the University the concern that this should be a community which values the worth and dignity of each individual, and seeks to offer justice and fairness to all.

The Chaplaincy range of contacts

Through the full-time University Chaplain and the Interfaith Chaplaincy Team we can get you connected to local churches, mosques, gudwaras and temples. Contact the University Chaplaincy for further information.
