Chaplaincy

The Universities Chaplaincy in Leeds offers spiritual guidance, support and friendship to students from both Leeds Metropolitan University and the University of Leeds. The chaplaincy is open to students and staff of all faiths and none.

The chaplaincy offers discussion groups, opportunities for worship, socials for international students and many other services including pastoral support in times of crisis, or just a quiet space for prayer or reflection.
