Years Old

Like all Church of England parishes, St Olave has to generate its own income in order to sustain its ongoing ministry, as well as maintain this Grade 1 listed Church. It currently costs around £3000 per week to maintain the church and our ministries, and your generosity is greatly appreciated.We all continue to work hard to maximise our resources while balancing the needs of a worshipping community. We rely on numerous volunteers and donations to support our community work such as our work with homeless people and rough sleepers in the City, our faith and ministry, as well as our varied and diverse response to the needs of those who visit us.

Your financial support will allow us to continue looking after the physical, mental and spiritual needs of many people in the city, to increase how often we can keep our building open, to welcome tourists and visitors, to provide a space for concerts and exhibitions, and to maintain our active presence in the City for future generations. Thank you.
