The Catholic Chaplain
My name is Fr. Ged Walsh and I am the Catholic Chaplain to the University. My home is in More House, the Catholic Chaplaincy building (between campus and Halifax College) which has an open door and simply provides a place of welcome throughout term-time where you can relax, brew up and find friendly company.
I am a Carmelite friar and priest.
Before beginning my formation as a friar I worked as a senior radiographer in a busy Liverpool hospital which has the biggest Accident and Emergency unit in the country! So, having been an undergraduate in both Birmingham and in Dublin, I have experience of an amazing university life where my faith grew to be an integral part of my life. I hope my work at the university exists to be of service to all staff and students regardless of faith.
I am available to all students and staff for conversations ranging from God to giraffes, there is usually a cup of coffee and biscuits to accompany this. Feel free to contact me either in More House or, if I am out and about on campus, via:
Home/office: 01904 410249
