The Reverend Mia Smith

Mia is responsible for the life of the Chapel, and also has a role in pastoral care as part of the college’s welfare team.
Her office is located in Room NB1/4, on the ground floor of staircase NB1 on the main college site.

Mia is happy to meet with members of the college community for any reason, regardless of their faith.

In all pastoral conversations she is bound by both the college and University Confidentiality Policy, and Professional Guidelines for Clergy. So, if you need a safe space to offload, or to talk things through, please do get in touch. She can point you to someone who can help you if further help is needed. Or you might just like a cup of tea, a general chat, a good moan, or use of a box of tissues. She is impossible to shock. She won’t talk about faith unless you do.

Mia came to the priesthood via a career in management, nursing, and midwifery. She studied theology at St Mellitus College, and St John’s College (Cranmer Hall) Durham. She is passionate about mentoring young leaders, sharing life over food, and developing habits which make us the best version of ourselves.
