Extent of our Interest and Involvement

Score sees the Chaplain's role as that of a spiritual and pastoral safety net. We recognise that the Chaplain does not help all of the people all of the time ... but he is available to all. For some of the people.

in certain circumstances, the accessability of the Chaplain is really vital. In a world where many people do not have close links with the church, or with the priest, pastor, minister, or vicar, when crisis comes the Chaplain can be a real help and support.

We believe that a chaplain can meet many of the needs that cannot be met by others involved in the club or event. Because of the underlying spiritual dimension he can bring, the Chaplain may be used in an informal situation, as a listening ear, a friend, a counsellor. Confidentiality, trustworthiness, and neutrality are important qualities offered. He or she may also be called upon for religious reasons, such as to pray with or for people, or to officiate at more formal occasions like, weddings, funerals, etc.
