All students and staff are warmly invited to attend the inaugural service of the University’s new Chaplain, Revd John Dane. The Service to welcome John to the University community will be held in The Chapel on Thursday 24 September at 5.00 pm. We are happy to welcome The University Chamber Choir who will sing.

as Chi Uni Chaplaincy

The Chaplaincy is here for the benefit of all - students and staff. It's an open space - it's a space for those with a faith who want to celebrate it as well as for those with their doubts who want to question it. For those who are just looking and those who need somewhere neutral to hang out. It is intended to be a creative mish mash of all of these things and more.

Prayer, Meditation and Personal Reflection

The Chapel at Bishop Otter Campus is available for prayer and personal reflection from 8am to 9am and 5pm to 6pm each week day.

Reflection Rooms at Bognor Regis Campus are also available for prayer, meditation and personal reflection. They are near to the Dining Hall, next to the SU offices.

John knows many of the local ministers and churches and welcomes the opportunity to talk to you about where you would feel most comfortable.
