  • Chaplaincy Services - Spiritual and Religious Care for all Faiths and None

    The leaflet is detailed below, or you can download the 'Chaplaincy Services' leaflet in PDF. 

    Being in hospital can be a life-changing experience, perhaps in unexpected ways. At Liverpool Women’s NHS Foundation Trust, our chaplaincy team is here to offer support to anyone who would find it helpful. We enjoy meeting people of different cultures and backgrounds, people of different faiths or none and we hope our multi faith team reflects this.

    What Do We Offer?

    Chaplains of all faiths and volunteers visit the wards to chat to patients.  Chaplaincy volunteers wear turquoise shirts so that they are easily identified.  We offer spiritual and religious support as well as pastoral care and a listening ear for those of all faiths and none.

    If you would like a visit from a chaplain of any faith group, please ask a member of staff to contact us.

    In an emergency, we can provide an on-call chaplaincy service, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A member of staff will be more than happy to request this for you.

    Multi-Faith Room

    There is a multi-Faith Room located near to main reception (next to the prayer tree). Within the multi-Faith Room there is a prayer space for all faith groups, it is open 24 hours a day and is a quiet reflective space for all. You may also want to light a candle, write a prayer in the book, or hang a prayer on the tree. All prayer requests are remembered in the regular prayers of the Chaplaincy Team.

    For the Islamic Community there is a Wudu washing facility in the main entrance of the hospital by the main reception desk.

    Religious Events

    There are occasional services throughout the year. For more information, please see the notices near the multi-Faith Room.

    Links with Local Church Communities and Faith Groups

    We enjoy good relationships with local churches and other faith communities. If you would like a church or local faith representative to be contacted on your behalf, please let a member of staff or the Trust Chaplain know. We will not contact anyone without your permission.
