 Chaplaincy

We serve the students and staff at the institutions of Higher Education in Manchester. A chaplain is available each weekday in term time and at other times, for anyone wishing to talk through difficulties or problems that may occur while studying in Manchester or working in the universities. The Chaplaincy is supported by the Anglican, Baptist, Methodist and United Reformed Churches. The Chaplaincy also has contacts with other Christian Churches and other faith communities.

One of the ways in which we serve our community is organizing trips - here are some photos of past events.

The Chaplains are:

• Revd Dr Terry Biddington
• Revd Nathan Eddy
• Revd Clare Dowding
• John Probhudan (Chaplain to International Students - see also the Chaplaincy to International Students page)
• Revd Shou-Hui Chung

Honorary Chaplains:

• Malc Cleall-Hill (MMU Didsbury)
• Raymond Cochrane (MMU Didsbury)
• Rebecca Craven (Dental School)
• John Hughes (Environmental Issues)
• Ian Gomersall (Hulme Hall)
• Gregory Hallam (Orthodox students & staff)
• William West (Society of Friends - Quaker)
• Piyatissa (Buddhist)

The Manchester Metropolitan university maintains a list of recognized chaplaincies (both Christian and other faiths):

• Manchester Metropolitan University

If you are interested in being baptised, confirmed or would like to talk about the possibility of ordination and discerning a sense of vocation or calling, please feel free to contact one of the chaplains.
