Pastoral, spiritual & emotional care

Support for everyone in the College community

College life is a journey we share together, and the wellbeing of our students, Fellows and staff is one of the top priorities for the Chapel team.

Led by the Chaplain, we are available for a conversation, to offer a non-judgemental, listening ear to anyone in the College community.

We are here for everyone, whatever their perspective on faith.

As well as services in the Chapel, we are often around in College and happy to talk. We also offer activities such as our termly walks to Grantchester, trips and retreats to support the life of our community.
