St James’s is a place to explore, reflect, pray, and support all who are in need. We are a Church of England parish in the Anglican Communion. This is a place for everyone who’s wondering about life’s big questions and striving for a better world.
We host a year-round cultural programme encompassing music, visual art and spoken word, drawing on St James’s rich cultural history including artists, writers and musicians Mary Beale, Mary Delany, William Blake, Ottobah Cugoano and Leopold Stokowski.
We try to put our faith into action by educating ourselves and speaking out on issues of injustice, especially concerning refugees, asylum, earth and racial justice, and LGBTQ+ issues.
We aspire to be a home where everyone can belong. We’re known locally and globally for our unique history and beauty, as well as faith in action, creativity and the arts, and a commitment to social and environmental justice.
We strive to be a Eucharist-centred, diverse and inclusive Christian community promoting life in abundance, wellbeing and dignity for all.

Zero Hour is the campaign for the Climate and Nature Bill, a plan for a new UK law that addresses climate change, global warming, and the nature crisis in line with the most up-to-date science. The Bill is the only proposed legislation before the UK Parliament that ensures a comprehensive and joined-up approach to the emergency we all face.
St James’s PCC is backing this campaign, and Lucy is giving it her personal support as a Faith Leader. Will you help the campaign by asking your MP to enter the private members’ bill ballot on 5 September in order to bring the Climate and Nature Bill back to Parliament?
Three core reasons why we should we get involved in this campaign as a church and as individuals.
1,586 organisations, politicians, faith leaders and scientists from all parts of the UK are backing the Climate and Nature Bill. Other supporters include Rt Revd Graham Usher C of E Lead Bishop for the Environment, and Rt Revd Rowan Williams.
If your MP is one of the top 20 winners of this ballot, they’ll be able to progress the CAN Bill on its journey into the statute books. Zero Hour has been building the alliance for the CAN Bill since 2020. The UK is dangerously off track with its climate and nature commitments. This our last, best chance to put the UK on the right track. The MPs’ ballot isn’t the only mechanism for getting the Bill introduced, but it is a very important one. Will you email your MP today and ask them to commit to backing the CAN Bill in the private members’ bill ballot?
