Rev. Peter Fairbrother | Ministries in Self-care

A little about me

​I was ordained as a OneSpirit Interfaith Minister in 2016. During the first year of my ministry I served as a mentor to the 2016 intake of OneSpirit ministry students (Class of 2018). From 2018-2021 I served as Minister of Unitarians in Edinburgh, St. Mark's Unitarian Church. Presently, I'm part of the Chaplaincy Team, Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (2022-).

Prior to training for interfaith ministry, I worked in UK health and social services in a variety of roles, principally in the fields of information & research (over twenty years experience derived from the statutory and third sectors). My educational background includes a first degree in Librarianship and Drama, an MSc. in Social Research, and postgraduate qualifications in leadership and management.

Originally from Northern Ireland, my homelife is currently shared between Scotland and the North East of England with my partner Phil. I have a passion for the countryside and coastal living which is generously satisfied in both locations. I'm also a big Doctor Who fan and devotee of the Eurovision Song Contest, regularly attending live shows across Europe and beyond.
