Welcome

St. Anne's  Church of England Parish Church in Soho.

We are part of the Diocese of London in the Church of England, and our full name is the Parish of St Anne with St Thomas and St Peter, Soho.
 
In many ways we are a typical Church of England parish. Our main weekly service is Holy Communion at 11am on Sundays where we  use modern language Common Worship.
 
We try to be a place of quiet and welcome and to make our services welcoming, straightforward and reflective.
 
Once a month, we try particularly hard to make the service more accessible to children.
 

 We have a small, modern, wheelchair-accessible church building which was rededicated in 1991 after our original church building was destroyed by a bomb in the Second World War.

The 1803 tower still stands and you can see it from our gardens in Wardour Street. We have a modern community hall, a panelled first floor room (the Allen Room) and a room in our tower which are available for hire.

The entrance to the church is at 55 Dean Street, a few metres from Shaftesbury Avenue.

You are very welcome to be with us whenever you can and reflect in prayer at a quiet oasis in Soho.

 
Our existing congregation is a great mix of people, from Soho and beyond. We have that great mix of ages, degrees of mobility, backgrounds, sexualities, "churchmanship", interests and theology that makes the Church strong... How could we be anything else in Soho? 
 
Soho community.
St. Anne's, Soho, is in the centre of one of the world's liveliest urban communities and a mass of cultural difference. It is home to hostels for the homeless, the media industry, an amazing restaurant, bar and club scene, prostitution,  the gay and lesbian community, several churches, a school for 149 children, 24-hour culture... and at one time, Karl Marx. We cannot afford to forget, either, that Soho is home for 5,000 residents.

St. Anne's supports our communities in all sorts of ways. Primarily, of course, by being a parish church, providing a quiet, reflective space where we can accept and welcome each other, worship and be together.
