What are Spiritual Needs?
The inner search for meaning, beliefs and values and how we express them. At times of change, crisis or illness we often question and struggle to find answers. Trust Chaplains are available for everyone, to listen and offer support, without judgement, whatever their beliefs.

Available at your nearest faith room and on some wards. These are advertised on our faith room noticeboards.
