Chaplains - an introduction


Chaplaincy is a way of connecting the ministry of the Church to the everyday needs and experiences of people, wherever they are.

One of the strengths of chaplaincy is that the role is recognised by the employing institution e.g. school, college, hospital, prison, police.
