Giving, Heritage & Volunteering

Continuing Our Inheritance
for Future Generations

St Mary-le-Bow has stood on Cheapside for almost a thousand years. Today, it remains a living church: open for prayer and worship, filled with music and conversation, and actively involved in City life.

Your generosity helps care for this beautifull Wren church and enables everything happening within its walls to continue.

CARE FOR A HISTORIC
WREN CHURCH

St Mary-le-Bow was rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren after the Great Fire of London. Caring for its architecture, fabric and historic features ensures this important City church can be enjoyed by generations to come.

KEEP THE BOW
BELLS RINGING

Among the most famous bells in London, the Bow Bells have sounded over Cheapside for centuries. Your support helps fund the ongoing care of the tower, bells, and the traditions associated with them.

BRING PEOPLE
TOGETHER

From lunchtime music and thought-provoking talks to Pride, International Women's Day, and gatherings from across the City, St Mary-le-Bow is a place where people gather, listen, celebrate, and exchange ideas.

CREATE A
WELCOMING SPACE

St Mary-le-Bow is open throughout the working week, welcoming anyone who wants to step inside to pray, light a candle, or find a moment of stillness. We follow a regular rhythm of Christian worship, from Morning and Evening Prayer to Eucharist, Sung Mass, and Compline, and you are warmly invited to join us.
