St James’s hosts inclusive services and a cultural programme. We seek to be a welcoming space for people to reflect, create and debate.
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 creative 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.
St James’s Piccadilly has been at the heart of its community since 1684. We invite you to play your part in securing this historic place for generations to come.
It costs us £3,500 per day to enable us to keep our doors open to all who need us
Your donation will help us restore our garden in Piccadilly as part of The Wren Project, making it possible for us to welcome over 300,000 people from all faiths and walks of life seeking tranquillity and inspiration each year.

Congregation members are invited to a morning of learning, gardening and labyrinth walking at this beautiful reserve, followed by lunch at Joan Ishibashi’s home nearby in Southall. Joan is a member of the Earth Justice team and has kindly offered to host us for an Ecozoic meal based on the Three Sisters (corn, beans and squash) inspired by the American Southwest.
A Rocha UK, the charity which runs the Eco Church programme, acquired the derelict three-acre Wolf Fields site in Southall, West London. Work to transform this patch of land into a community greenspace started in 2013. The site was cleared of 54 tonnes of rubbish. Wolf Fields now provides access to a safe green space and is a centre of community activities and events.
Our Earth Justice Eco team has arranged a visit to Wolf Fields to hear how A Rocha makes use of this vital space, to do some gardening and use their labyrinth. Afterwards, we will make our way to the nearby home of Joan Ishibashi for a simple American Southwest meal. This will be based on the Three Sisters of corn, beans and squash, which are integral to our Food for the Ecozoic project.
