Salvation Army churches form a well-established strand of Christianity in the United Kingdom. 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, home to the Church of England alongside thriving Catholic, Methodist, Baptist and independent churches. Canterbury lies within Kent, whose county town is Maidstone. If you are new to the area, this is one of several congregations in Canterbury worth getting to know.
