Spirituality

Chilworth is on the outskirts of Southampton, and is similar to the city insofar as its residents come from many different cultures and follow a variety of religions and spiritual paths. The links below may be useful to newcomers, and possibly even to established residents. If your particular spiritual path, be it theistic or not, isn’t represented here then please get in touch and it will be added.

For an appreciation of the faiths of others, why not take a look at the website of the Southampton Council of Faiths?
