We're in the Forum!

The Chaplaincy Team have a space in the Forum.

To find us, ask at the Student Information Desk, or go past the desk and into the Careers area - we are in the far corner.

There should be a chaplain there most of the time, but if you cannot find us, ask at the desk and they should know where we are.

Or use SID the online system for asking questions and requesting appointments

The Chaplaincy team

Welcome to Exeter. We hope you enjoy your time here, and take part in everything that the University has to offer.

The Chaplaincy Team is a group of people from different faith traditions working together to serve the whole University Community; seeking wholeness, peace and justice through compassion, tolerance, wisdom and respect. We aspire to nurture and encourage spiritual awareness in those we meet, and we are open and available to everyone. The Team cover both the Streatham and St Luke’s campuses and is linked with the University of Exeter in Cornwall at the Tremough campus (shared with Falmouth College of Arts).

We  provide opportunities for worship and for faith to be nurtured and deepened. We also engage with those who have questions about the meaning of life. We are always ready to discuss issues of faith, daily living or any personal matter in confidence at all times.

If you would like to know more about the Multi-Faith Chaplaincy and its activities, please email one of the Chaplains - we would be delighted to hear from you.

One of us will be in the Forum or the Long Lounge every weekday if you want to meet and have a chat. Look out for us in our Chaplaincy Team stash.

Jewish Society Wins Award

The University of Exeter Students’ Guild Jewish Society, Exeter JSoc, has been nationally recognised after being awarded ‘Best Developing JSoc 2012’ by the National Union of Jewish Students (UJS).

The honour was presented in front of over 200 Jewish students at the UJS annual awards ceremony in London on Sunday 1 April.

“Exeter Jewish Society President Ben Salamon has worked tirelessly to develop and maintain an active and dynamic society with events both in town and on campus,” said Chaplain Robin Kanarek.

Recently, the Jewish Society held a night of Jewish stand up comedians at the Barnfield Theatre. The Society has also been involved with the Exeter Synagogue and its community for meals, services, festivals and other occasions.

"Jewish students are tremendously hard working and achieve amazing things on campuses across the country," said Daniel Grabiner, UJS president.
