Speaker Meeting March 2016

The speaker at our March meeting was the Rev. George Lane from the Manchester Airport Chaplaincy.

This is a workplace chaplaincy for over 20,000 workers at the airport, and also offers pastoral and humanitarian aid to anyone who may be in trouble on the site. He and his colleagues work closely with the airport customer care team and the police, and offer non-denominational support to people of all faiths who are in need of help. With over 24 million people coming through the airport per year, they deal with a wide range of issues including human trafficking, forced marriage and homelessness.

Their philosophy is that “it’s about people” who are considered as human beings (rather than passengers or customers) and help is given according to their individual needs.
