Our Associate Priest, Revd Alanna Harris, has started her new role as Lead Chaplain of the Canary Wharf Multifaith Chaplaincy. Alanna is leading a ten-strong multifaith team of paid and volunteer chaplains, providing pastoral care to organisations around Canary Wharf and advising them on matters relating to ethics, values, and faith in the workplace.
Alanna brings over a decade of experience in ministry and leadership to the Lead Chaplain role along with academic credentials that include a Master’s degree in Theology, Ministry, and Mission from Ridley Hall, Cambridge University. Most recently, she served as Anglican Chaplain at Charing Cross Hospital, where she provided pastoral care as part of a multifaith NHS team. She also been serving us at St Katharine Cree, the Guild Church for Workers in the City of London, where she will continue to advise us on the development of workplace chaplaincy.
Reflecting on her new role, Alanna said:
“Faith has always been central to my life, guiding every decision I make. I am excited to bring my experience and passion for community engagement to the Canary Wharf chaplaincy and continue to provide vital spiritual support to those who work and live in this vibrant, multifaith area.”
