Chaplaincy Service

There are 20 full-time and 9 part-time chaplains from the Roman Catholic, Church of Ireland and Methodist denominations. The chaplains are responsible for the pastoral and spiritual care of the entire prison community, regardless of denomination. Chaplains of other churches can also attend the prisons on a visiting basis. Local Muslim religious leaders meet the needs of Muslim prisoners.
