Opportunities for worship

Throughout the week there are lots of opportunities for worship, both on and off-campus, for a range of faith traditions. Many places of worship are also continuing to provide remote activities and opportunities for worship, so you can get involved no matter where you are located.

Our Faith Advisors are here to help you find the right connection and put you in touch with them. If a contact is not listed for your faith tradition and you would like more information about local worship opportunities, please contact us at FaithandSpirituality@brighton.ac.uk.

You may also be interested in joining one of Students' Union's faith-based societies. If there isn't one that's suitable, why not consider setting one up?

Assist with good ventilation

The university is working to improve fresh air flow in all spaces across campus.

Our prayer rooms in Dallington House and Watts (with the exception of the washrooms) have been fitted with CO2 monitors to promote good ventilation and ensure the wellbeing and comfort of all room users.

Worshippers should use the monitors to measure CO2 levels and take appropriate action, as outlined in the poster displayed in each room.
