The Chaplaincy Committee of the University of Cape Coast (UCC) has organised a five-day retreat to review its activities and develop strategies for implementing its Strategic Action Plan.

The retreat, held from November 17–21, 2025, at Ed Hotel on campus, provided an opportunity to reflect on past achievements and challenges, assess the present, and chart a new course for the future.

It served as a platform for comprehensive discussions, thoughtful reflections, and growth, aimed at ensuring the successful rollout of the Strategic Action Plan.
