Basingstoke Town Chaplaincy currently has Chaplains who are members of several different churches in Basingstoke. All are volunteers who give their time to meet people and visit places of work around the town centre, and all have a heart to make a difference by supporting people in Basingstoke. Chaplains are practising Christians who engage with people of all faiths or none.

The Chaplains visit a wide variety of businesses in Basingstoke, including shops, offices, the police offices, bus station and Magistrates’ Courts and also walk around the parks and station forecourt to meet people. People can talk to a Chaplain in confidence about anything that concerns them and the Chaplains work to build up relationships with those they see regularly. The Chaplains are not counsellors, but will help people to think through matters of concern to them and can provide information about agencies that can offer specialist support if that is needed. Often, a good listening ear is all the help that is required.

The Basingstoke Town Chaplaincy is a registered charity. It is supported by One Church Basingstoke and depends totally on charitable giving.  If you would like to know more about the work we do in Basingstoke, please contact us.
