Somewhere to pray

The Chaplaincy offers several spaces to pray, as well as regular organised events for different faiths and beliefs. The Multifaith Centre on level 2 of the Owen Building has a quiet space designated for prayer and meditation, Muslim prayer rooms, and multi-purpose meeting space. Please note that occasionally chaplaincy activities are cancelled outside of term time.

If you come across any issues with the facilities in the Multifaith Centre, please contact our Estates team on 0114 225 4444 to report it.
