Westminster promotes degree in healthcare chaplaincy

The Westminster Diocese Healthcare Chaplaincy Office has led the way in devising a Foundation Degree in Healthcare Chaplaincy. Earlier in the year five student Hospital Chaplains graduated from St Mary's University College, Twickenham with the new Foundation Degree.

Alan Newman, one of those who graduated said: "it was the best experience of teaching I have ever received."

The Foundation Degree has been recommended by Bishop Tom Williams of the CBCEW, Revd. Edward Lewis of the Hospital Chaplaincies Council and Revd. Debbie Hodge of the Free Church Federal Board.
