Anglican/Church of England Chaplain
Are you a compassionate individual with a deep commitment to fostering spiritual well-being within a correctional environment? We are currently seeking a dedicated Anglican / Church of England Chaplain to join our team at HMP Forest Bank.
You will engage with residents, particularly focusing on those nearing release, to provide essential faith-based support and facilitate their reintegration into society. Your role will involve conducting interviews, supporting religious practices within the prison, and participating in chaplaincy team meetings. Collaboration with other chaplains and respect for all faiths are key to promoting peace and cooperation. Additionally, you will liaise with faith-based rehabilitation centres to secure appropriate placements for residents and help coordinate their discharge process. By establishing strong links with the local faith community, you will encourage their active involvement in residents' rehabilitation and resettlement.
This is a challenging and rewarding role for someone with the drive and determination to make impactful and lasting impressions on the future of our prisoners. If you are passionate about pastoral care and dedicated to making a meaningful impact, we invite you to apply and help guide our residents towards a positive future.
Please see the attached job description for a more detailed list of the main responsibilities.
