Cambridge Street Pastors

Working non-judgmentally in Cambridge City Centre’s Night Time Economy.

Their aim is to keep an eye out and offer assistance to anyone in any kind of need without judgement.  They keep in touch with door staff, police, paramedics and CCTV, by radio which links to the Street Pastors and NightLite in case people need them.

Cambridgeshire Workplace Chaplaincy

They work to promote the concept of workplace chaplaincy and support the chaplains who offer this service across Cambridgeshire.  They do this by supporting workplace Chaplains of all faiths across Cambridge, Peterborough and surrounding areas in their work of meeting the pastoral and spiritual needs of people in work settings of all kinds, whether commercial, public or voluntary sector.

They do this through a programme of networking events; regular communications, and providing signposting to information such as training or regulatory changes.
