The Waterways Chaplaincy could not exist without the goodwill and support of the chaplains themselves. Along with the chaplains, there is a growing network of supporters who raise awareness of our work, publicise it near them, raise funds for it and generally wish it well.
Many supporters come from the friends and family of the chaplains, but not all. Many are church goers, but not all. If you would like to think about becoming a Supporter of the Waterways Chaplaincy we would love to hear from you.
Are you part of the canal and river networks huge infrastructure that serves and profits the community?
You may be a mariner, chandlers, insurers, water companies, boat hire companies, local floating business, cafes etc, which are all enmeshed together.
Hopefully, when one flourishes everyone does, and when one notices a problem… it will be flagged up to all.
If you own, run, or work in a waterside endeavour and would like to support the Waterways Chaplaincy, we would love to hear from you.
A majority of Churches have provided support to their local waterways communities for hundreds of years, and some have now begun again to focus on these often overlooked neighbours on their doorstep.
With only a limited number of volunteer chaplains, many of these churches can give chaplaincy-like-help to the neighbouring communities that we could not typically reach with foodbanks, warm spaces, showers/laundry, a listening ear etc.
We would love to hear from any Churches that are keen to partner with us to help serve local floating communities in need across the waterways network.
We are going to hold our supporters meetings online (held only 4 times a year) for convenience to everyone.
