The Friends of the City Churches

The Friends of the City Churches is an architectural heritage charity dedicated to preserving the beautiful and unique churches found within the square mile of the City of London. As part of our work we:

• bring together the many interesting people who love and value the City churches
  
  
• assist in the conservation and repair of these historic buildings through small grants and services
  
  
• help to keep churches open and welcome weekday visitors and worshippers through the work of our volunteer Church Watchers
  
  
• enrich our Friends’ knowledge through events including walks, talks, visits and tours
  
  
• advertise forthcoming services, concerts and events in our regular listings guide, City Events
  
  
• explore the heritage and the modern life of the churches in our Skyline magazine
  (3 issues a year)
  

Back issues are regularly rotated here.

Annual Report and Financial Statements 2023-24

St Stephen’s Walbrook is currently closed for renovation, completion date to be advised.

The arrangement under which the Friends of the City Churches have occupied the office at St Mary Abchurch for the past ten years has expired and the FCC trustees have decided to relocate the charity's administration to an office elsewhere rather than to continue to occupy the St Mary Abchurch office under the licence to occupy offered by the St Mary Abchurch Guild Church Council. An important reason for this decision is uncertainty related to the major conservation and refurbishment project that might cause the building to close for a period at some point in the near future. The Friends of the City Churches have very much valued their partnership with St Mary Abchurch and wishes it well as it continues to serve the City's community.
