Dates for 2026
This year, our pilgrimage will be from Friday 17th to Friday 24th July 2026.
In order to aid the planning stages as early as possible, it would be helpful if you could indicate your interest in travelling to Lourdes with us.
Would you be willing to volunteer for any of the roles that support the smooth running of the Pilgrimage?
Please indicate this below by selecting one or more of the choices below. Please note that 16- and 17-year-old volunteers require references from a senior teacher at their school, and volunteers aged 18 or over at the time of the pilgrimage must possess an Enhanced Westminster Diocesan DBS Certificate for roles involving care for adults at risk and children in Lourdes.
DBS Certificates are granted by the Diocese of Westminster Safeguarding Department. All participants with a medical condition, and not just Assisted Pilgrims, are required to complete a Westminster Lourdes Pilgrimage Medical Questionnaire and to have received the appropriate permissions, and to have obtained a Global Health Insurance Card (compulsory) before travel.
“My time in Lourdes, serving as a chaplain, was transformative. It not only deepened my own faith but also ignited a desire to continue this path of service and spiritual growth.“

Redcap Chaplain, 2024
