Would you like to come and work with us?

Volunteering
There are lots of different opportunities developing at St Katharine Cree in which you might like to volunteer. Perhaps you want to help people learn English, or join our gardening group, or help with our Christmas fair, or help keep the church space lovely, or to help us start a new activity?
We ask anyone interested in volunteering with us to start that process with a conversation, where we can get to know you and what you are interested in before we discuss any specific opportunities or roles.
The best way to do this is to come to one of our times of prayer and introduce yourself to one of the team. Or, you can contact us.
Anyone who volunteers with us regularly has at least a DBS check and references appropriate to the role, as part of our safeguarding approach to ensure that we remain a community where all are welcome and safe.
Would you like to come and spend a team building day helping us here at St Katharine Cree?
There are lots of ways you can help: from helping tidy the garden, to repainting neglected areas of the building we are bringing back into use, to helping run CV coaching clinics for young people and those out of work who are applying for jobs.
We would love to hear from you and discuss what you could do as a team with us. Or, you can contact us.
Corporate Days
Would you like to experience a different kind of workplace ministry here in the City of London? Are you interested in pioneering new approaches to growing churches, so that we can reach every Londoner with the good news of Jesus Christ?
We are committed to supporting the development of new vocations, and the training of new leaders for the Church - including those called to ordained ministry.
Please get in touch with Revd Josh Harris, the Priest in Charge, if you'd like to spend time here on placement for any length of time as part of your training for ordained ministry in the Church of England.
