Description
The Chapel Edition is a smaller, more portable version of the Ambo Edition, and is perfect for use in settings where space is at a premium.
We do not recommend this Chapel Edition for main churches or regular Mass Centres due to its smaller size.
Ideal for:
* Side chapels
* House chapels
* Schools
* Chaplaincies to prisons, hospitals, armed forces
