Exeter University Catholic Chaplaincy  

What is the Catholic Chaplaincy? 

Exeter University Catholic Chaplaincy has been around since 1966 and is the centre for Catholic students at the university. As well as having its own chapel, the Chaplaincy also has a library (from which you are welcome to borrow books), a TV lounge, a large meeting room and its very own bar (the cheapest on campus). The extensive gardens are often used for barbecues and parties in the summer. The Chaplaincy also provides student accommodation at a very good rate.

Where are we?

The Chaplaincy is situated on Glenthorne Road next to Moberly Halls of Residence. We are number 74 on the Streatham Campus map which can be found at: http://www.exeter.ac.uk/visit/directions/streathammap/. We can be found on Google maps and Sat Nav using our postcode, EX4 4QU.

What is the Chaplain for?

The current chaplain is Fr. Michael Wheaton and his primary role is to encourage, represent and support the Catholic community in the university. In addition to offering the sacraments, Fr. Michael is available to any student who would like to talk to him on a one-to-one basis and can be contacted by phone or email. 

Catholic Society (CathSoc) events

The Chaplaincy is also home to the student-led Catholic Society, better known as Cathsoc. The Cathsoc committee organise weekly events such as quiz nights, film and pizza nights, visits to the local pubs, BBQs and speakers. We encourage you to like Cathsoc’s Facebook page to keep up-to-date with everything they are doing: https://www.facebook.com/ExeterUniCatholicSociety/ You can also join the society by following this link: https://www.exeterguild.org/societies/catholic/
