Chaplaincy support and events

The chaplaincy is here to support everyone in our diverse UWE Bristol community where people from many different backgrounds, cultures, faiths, beliefs and worldviews study and live alongside each other. We offer informal individual support (‘a listening ear’) when life is challenging, opportunities to explore the big questions in life, and spaces to reflect or connect. We have a base on Frenchay campus (2D019) and host weekly drop-in sessions on the other campuses during the main teaching periods. Just call in or contact us for more information: chaplaincy@uwe.ac.uk.

There are sanctuary spaces available for students (of all faiths or no-faith, beliefs and worldviews to use on a drop-in basis on all Bristol campuses for reflection, quiet, prayer and meditation.
