Lunchtime Socials

These are our regular, free of charge weekly acitivites at the chaplaincy. Each of our lunchtime socials is themed and we invite you to join us, to connect, unwind and recharge for the day ahead. Bring along your lunchbox and enjoy free tee and coffee.

Weekdays 12-2pm

Our lunchtime socials are sometimes subject to change, so keep an eye on the live event calendar and check out our Instagram page for regular updates.

Our lunchtime socials are run on a first-come first-served basis.

Monday	Soup Lunch‌	We serve homemade vegan soup and bread, so that you can start your week feeling warm and connected. There is currently no charge for our Soup Lunch and it is first come first served.
Tuesday	Zero Waste Café	Enjoy a home-cooked meal using good-to-eat food that otherwise would have gone to waste, sourced from around Bristol. Cooked for students, by students. If you'd like to volunteer to help cook or wash up, please email multifaith-chaplaincy@bristol.ac.uk.
Wednesday	Hungry Caterpillar Food Co-op	We are a low-waste, environmentally friendly student-run food cooperative; which means we buy food in bulk and sell it for the same price. Come along and get bulk goods such as porridge oats, peanut butter, red lentils and chickpeas. We even have bulk liquid shampoo, bulgur wheat, nuts, rice, muesli and much more!
Thursday	Cook & Connect
Friday	Chai-day Friday, crafts & games	Unwind at the end of the week with a warm cup of Chai, some sweet and savoury treats, a calming space, and a range of gentle activities…from crafts and games to simply relaxing with others. It’s a chance to pause, step away from the busyness of university life, and take time for your wellbeing. Towards the end of the session, you’re welcome to join us for a short, reflective time of prayer in our quiet room, or simply continue enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and activities.
