Anna Chaplaincy

Anna Chaplaincy is a ministry offering person-centred spiritual care for older people.  Anna Chaplains can be lay or ordained, male or female, and in paid or voluntary roles.  Some have been in lay ministry roles for a while (as authorised lay ministers or Readers), others are ordained,  but for some Anna Chaplaincy is their first ministry role.

Anna Chaplaincy in the Dioceses of Canterbury was introduced in 2019 and is affiliated to The Bible Reading Fellowship; there are now Anna Chaplains in each of our archdeaconries.

Anna Chaplaincy in the Diocese is co-ordinated by Julia Burton-Jones, who is also Anna Chaplaincy Lead for the Diocese of Rochester.

The Anna Chaplaincy Working Group is responsible for developing good practice and support for Anna Chaplaincy, this includes Julia Burton-Jones, Judith Andrews, Jean Kerr, and Nigel Collins.Neon sign with a speech bubble reading 'Hello'
