About

You’re invited to the National Churches Trust annual Carols by Candlelight concert on Thursday 10 December, 7pm at Grosvenor Chapel in Mayfair, London. Be transported into a winter wonderland with your favourite festive carols from our choir and brass band, as well as music and readings from Sir Michael Palin, Katie Derham, Joe Stilgoe and Bill Bryson. This event will raise funds for the work of the National Churches Trust supporting churches and chapels throughout the UK. On the night, you’ll hear more from the National Churches Trust about how we’ve been able to help protect the UK’s historic churches, to keep them open today and tomorrow, and for generations to come. We are grateful for the generous support of CCLA Investment Management for this event. The music is kindly sponsored by Birketts LLP and the AV and livestream sponsor is DSAV. Tickets include a glass of fizz or soft drink, mince pie and a programme. Doors open at 6:30pm.

We are delighted to be returning to Grosvenor Chapel, which you may recognise from Richard Curtis’ hit film, often called the ultimate Christmas movie, Love Actually. This elegant church presents an outwardly simple design of brick and stone edging, with a church steeple and a clock in the centre. But inside this 18th century wonder, you’ll find a stunning mainl ywhite interior and an 18th century style organ. Can't make it to London? Join us online. More details coming soon.
