Belong at Birmingham - Religion
Explore the diverse religious landscape at University of Birmingham and beyond with student recommendations from Belong at Birmingham. From multi-faith chaplaincies and prayer spaces to churches, mosques and synagogues, this guide connects you with the spiritual communities and resources available to support your faith.
Being apart of UoB PENSA was great experience to practice my faith and to be surrounded by people who look like me and who have a similar background as me. Another great way to meet people especially if you are new.
