Our teams of Workplace Chaplains
are available
for listening,
bereavement support,
and wellbeing guidance
at this time of disruption.
If you are a person of prayer, please do pray:
- for all who are grieving at this time
- for all who are anxious about their health, family or future employment;
- for all who are working hard, either at the front line, or behind the scenes, to facilitate the smooth delivery of care and daily life needs.

At her recent chaplaincy commissioning service Audrey, a Solihull team chaplain, explained how on first meeting a workplace chaplain she became aware of the value of such chaplaincy and that when the opportunity arose some years later, she carried out the training course and she went on to say, ‘I started by shadowing two chaplains and then when on my own, as I’ve got to know the retailers, I have built up some good relationships. Some of the retailers have asked for prayer for sick relatives or bereaved families. On one occasion I was invited to share my faith. The retailers look forward to the chaplains giving out Christmas cards and mince pies at Christmas.’
A listening ear, a smiling face or just a presence, we visit to bring God and to find God in the workplace.
As a chaplain the amount of time that you give is up to you and the times that you visit is up to you – naturally avoiding busy periods, of course.

What is Workplace Chaplaincy?
Workplace staff come to us for confidential listening and relationship independent of their workplace.
Chaplains help organisations to think beyond the normal boundaries. Through our mission, we witness to hope and faith.
Workplace Chaplaincy offers support and witness. Chaplains give time and care.

Chaplaincy stories are available on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/CIGB1
For all people of faith in the workplace, our chaplains support their ‘faithfulness at work’. For people of no faith, we empower and encourage.
CIGB has a growing base of volunteer chaplains, and we run regular Chaplaincy Training Courses for new volunteers. See our Training page for information.
CIGB Workplace Chaplaincy is part of a national network of chaplains: Workplace Chaplaincy Mission UK
