Salvation Army congregations represent one enduring branch of the Christian faith in these islands. 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.

The congregation shares in a long history of worship in England, home to the Church of England alongside thriving Catholic, Methodist, Baptist and independent churches. London is the county town of Greater London and a focal point for church life in the area. The church forms part of the wider Salvation Army presence across Greater London.
