Caraway Chaplains are there to listen and help you work your way through some of the changes, challenges and transitions we all face in our later years.

Our friendly team of Chaplains work across Southampton, are trained through ‘Anna Chaplaincy’ and have undergone safeguarding checks. They are there to listen and help you work through some of the changes, challenges and transitions we all face in our later years.

The work of our Chaplains is very varied – as well as visiting with individuals, you might find them taking a Care Home Church Service, organising a Holiday at Home event, or helping at a Dementia Friendly Memory Cafe. Our Chaplain for Dementia is specifically trained to help those living with this illness.

Wherever they are in action – they always have a friendly smile and a listening ear.

Our Caraway Chaplains are often supported by wonderful Chaplaincy Assistants. These are trained volunteers who work alongside our Chaplains, sometimes together and sometimes independently.

Could you be a Caraway Chaplain, or help on a Chaplaincy Team?

We are always keen to hear from new people considering this rewarding work. If you are interested in finding out more about working with Older People in a pastoral role on a regular basis, please get in touch for a chat with one of our lovely team.
