We are seeking a compassionate, creative and motivated chaplain to work as part of our Spiritual Care Team. You will be joining a team that is diverse and inclusive. Informal visits and conversations are welcome. This post is open to all faiths and beliefs.

The Chaplaincy-Spiritual Care team is committed to providing compassionate, person-centred spiritual, pastoral, and religious care to patients, families, visitors, volunteers, and staff of all faiths, beliefs, and philosophies of life. We seek to promote dignity, wellbeing, and holistic care through a compassionate, non-judgemental approach that respects and values individual differences and lived experiences.

• Contribute to the delivery of teaching, training, and educational sessions as required.
• Support individuals and families who have experienced pregnancy loss and, where appropriate, arrange, plan, and lead baby funerals and memorial services.
