The Chaplaincy and Broadmead Baptist Church

The Chaplaincy was started by Broadmead Baptist Church in 1987 with support from the other City Centre Churches.

The chaplaincy was originally funded by a grant from the Baptist Union.

The Bristol City Centre Chaplaincy Trust, representing the city centre churches and the business community, has been established to ensure continued funding and to support the main object of the Trust which is the provision of one or more Christian chaplains to serve the business community in the City of Bristol, their employees and families.

With this in mind the Trustees require to raise funds and invite contributions from the business community.
