Sowing seeds of Hope. What is chaplaincy?

What is chaplaincy?

Hospital chaplaincy isn’t just about helping those who are near death, “we’re very much there for the living!” says Pamela Howarth who is a chaplain at multiple hospitals in Plymouth and the South West region.

In this interview she describes what the role of a chaplain is and just as importantly, what it is not!

This interview will help those who may find themselves or a loved one in hospital and in need of a chaplain to understand what they can expect from those people in that role.

It will also help anyone who has ever considered hospital chaplaincy as a role for themselves.
