A church guide written by students
Members add a line about the church they go to. Freshers get honest, first-hand notes instead of a list of names.
For Christian Unions
Help every student find a church that fits.
One link for your freshers’ stall, your Instagram bio and every flyer in halls. A church guide written by students, Church Search Sundays, and an easy way for coursemates to ask questions.

Freshers’ week is when everyone’s open to trying something new. It’s also when lots of students decide whether church will be part of their uni life.
Give them one easy link instead of a stack of flyers, written by students who’ve been there.

Do I have to be a Christian to come to CU stuff?
Not at all. Lots of people who come are just curious, and you’re very welcome to sit at the back and listen.
Is it weird to go to church on my own?
Not weird, but it can feel a bit daunting. That’s why we go in groups on Church Search Sundays. Come along with us.

Your freshers’ fair stall, flyers in halls, your bio and your hoodies.
What you get
Built for the way CUs actually work.
Church Search Sundays
Post where you’re meeting each week. New students can turn up and go along in a group, which is far less daunting than walking in alone.
Questions welcome, toasties optional
Coursemates can ask anything anonymously, and you answer on your page. Doing toastie deliveries? They can ask for one of those too.
One link for everywhere
Your stall at the freshers’ fair, flyers in halls, your Instagram bio, the back of your hoodie. The QR code always opens the latest version.
Hand it over every year
When your committee changes, pass the page to next year’s team. The link stays the same, so last year’s flyers still work.
A send-off for graduates
Leaving Northgate? Point finalists to checked churches near their next job or city, so they don’t drift when uni ends.
For curious coursemates
Welcoming to everyone, whatever they believe.
Most people who see your page won’t be Christians, and that’s the point. Everything is written to feel relaxed, honest and pressure-free.
Visitors stay anonymous
Anyone can look without logging in or leaving their details.
No lists, no chasing
We don’t track who views a page, and nobody is added to anything.
Checked churches
Every listed church is checked, so you can point people somewhere safe.
Honest answers
Questions are answered openly on your page. Sceptical ones included.
FAQ
Questions from CUs.
Is it free?
Yes, completely. Every template, every page, the QR codes and the print files are free, and so is visiting one.
Do churches need to sign up?
No. You can add any church. We check the details are right, and churches can claim their listing later if they want to keep their info up to date.
What happens when our committee changes?
Pass the page to next year’s committee in a couple of clicks. The link and QR code stay the same, so nothing you’ve printed goes out of date.
Can members have their own links too?
Yes. Every member can make a personal invite page, like seeyousunday.link/hannah, and link back to the CU page.
Can we use it for events week and lunchtime talks?
Definitely. Add events to your page with the date, place and topic. Friends can say “I’ll come along” without signing up.
Templates
One link, lots of ways to use it.
Same page, same tools. Start with one template and add another page under your link whenever you need it.
