The Salvation Army tradition holds a distinctive place within British church life. 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, where the parish system has shaped local life for more than a thousand years. Ossett lies within West Yorkshire, whose county town is Leeds. Visitors are welcome, whether you live in Ossett or are simply passing through.
