Faith Room & Prayer Room

The Chaplaincy maintains the Faith Room, situated in Herbert Collins building (HC206) and the Prayer Room (HC207). These are both open to all students and staff during the day for personal private prayer, or somewhere to be quiet. The Prayer Room has permanent curtains in it, enabling it to be divided into separate prayer areas.

At Warsash, the Quiet Room is situated at the end of the corridor in the Mountbatten Library building (Room ML002), and the keys can be collected from Reception. If you require any assistance in planning Faith meetings or in the use of this room, please do not hesitate to contact the Chaplain or the Warsash Student Advisor.
