Sabbaticals Visitors & Further training
Sabbaticals
Wesley House is committed to an ethos of life-long learning. Through sabbaticals, many now in ministry have already made use of the facilities we have. Accommodation, access to the libraries of the Cambridge Theological Federation and Cambridge University and to lecture programmes and seminars can be arranged. The university also run cultural and social programmes for sabbatical visitors which you can access. For more information please contact the Bursar.
