Chaplains can support you or accompany you on occasions such as:

* you need time to think
* you need help in times of crisis
* you need to make a decision and need support in doing so
* you regret what has happened and need to move on
* someone has died and you need support
* you want to deepen your spiritual experience
* you have personal struggles or relationship problems.

Chaplains have links with specialist sources of help within the university and can help you to decide how and when to access appropriate support.
