About The Salvation Army

The Salvation Army welcomes worshippers in Fort William as one of the Salvation Army churches of Highland. The congregation meets at Glen Nevis Place, Fort William. The church keeps its service schedule and activities updated at www.salvationarmy.org.uk/fort-william.

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 church stands within the wider Christian life of Scotland, where the Kirk has long stood at the centre of village and city life. Fort William lies within Highland, whose county town is Inverness. Visitors are welcome, whether you live in Fort William or are simply passing through.

If you are thinking of visiting, there is no need to book: most congregations are delighted to see new faces. Getting there is usually easiest on foot or by local bus, since on-site parking can be scarce, and anyone who needs step-free access should contact the church beforehand to check what the building offers.
