Holy Sepulchre, London: rekindling the past to build our future

The PCC of Holy Sepulchre, Holborn Viaduct is committed to making positive steps towards securing the future of its Grade I listed church building. This project will facilitate the future repair and conservation of the church, and consider the introduction of sympathetic alterations to support its sustainability. Through this project the PCC also aims to strengthen its resilience, undertaking a Governance Review and preparing a Business Plan, as well as by delivering critical pieces of work which will lay valuable foundations for a major capital repair project. By piloting a range of engagement activities, the PCC will share the history and heritage associated with its historic church with young people and the isolated, including, older people and City workers, testing demand and using feedback to shape future activities. The PCC will also repair its water fountain- London’s first- bringing it back into use and engaging young people in its story.
