The Salvation Army family of churches carries a long and particular story within the wider Church. The Salvation Army was founded by William and Catherine Booth in the East End of London in 1865 and is known as much for its social work as for its worship. Local churches, called corps, combine Sunday services with food banks, debt advice, homelessness support and, famously, brass bands. There are around 600 corps across the UK and Ireland. The tradition traces its modern form to 1865. As a measure of its reach, the wider family today counts around 600 corps in the UK and Ireland.
It is one of many congregations found across England, whose landscape holds everything from Saxon churches to congregations meeting in converted warehouses. London is the county town of Greater London and a focal point for church life in the area. Visitors are welcome, whether you live in London or are simply passing through.
