Faith Centre

The Spiritual and Pastoral Care Team offer spiritual, pastoral or religious care to staff, patients and their family and friends, and visitors to the hospital. Our team of chaplains are available to listen and support you if you would appreciate someone to listen.

Spiritual and pastoral care is for everyone, those of any faith or none. Spiritual care recognises and responds to the needs of the human spirit. These needs can be particularly felt in the face of trauma, ill health, sadness or grief.

Everyone is an individual, and your needs and wishes will reflect this. Spiritual and pastoral care is about valuing and respecting people for who they are and acknowledging what is important to them.

A chaplain is on-call 24 hours, 7 days a week, covering all our hospitals for emergency visits or to advise staff within the Trust.
