Welcome to the Chaplaincy

Sponsored and supported by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Salford, the Chaplaincy is here as a home from home for you. Serving the city’s three university institutions, we aim to provide a warm
and safe environment in which you feel secure, and are enabled to grow in appreciation and understanding of the Catholic Christian Tradition. You never need a reason to drop by for a coffee, a chat, to relax, to make a visit to our beautiful chapel, to use the Library or to speak with one of the Chaplaincy Team in total confidence.

There are many different activities and events to choose from as you will see from our programme. On the other hand you may want simply to find a place of peaceful quiet – that is fine too. The Chaplaincy is here for you. Welcome to YOUR place!

Enjoy your time in Manchester.
