What is Coptic City Mission?

  • We are a youth-led Christian charity directly supporting rough sleepers in Central London. We offer grass-root level support through the provision of food, clothing, sleeping supplies, empathy and fellowship to the people that we serve.

  • Coptic City Mission was created by His Eminence Archbishop Angaelos in 2000 to promote youth-led outreach towards our homeless community in Victoria.

  • It has grown since then into a vibrant service, whereby volunteers provide hot food and drinks, sleeping bags, clothing and other essential items for rough sleepers. Alongside this, our servants provide their fellowship to the people that we serve as well as enjoying the benefits of giving back.

  • Coptic City Mission runs services across several sites in London: Sundays at the Strand, Tuesdays at Spenser Street in Victoria, and Mondays in East London, as well as larger indoor services held at Pimlico on special occasions such as Easter and Christmas.

  • We are ever grateful to our many volunteers and supporters, who have helped us over the years. Some of our memories can be found in our archive here

Please reach out if you wish to support us by:

  • by offering to cook hot meals, prepare hot drinks, cake or soup.

  • donate supplies like tea, coffee, sugar, etc

  • delivering sandwiches and pastries collected from our network of local establishments who donate food to our service

  • volunteering to hand out food and clothing with us at any of our locations fundraising for us so we can purchase more supplies, clothes and sleeping bags join us to be served by the Mission.

  • We are constantly searching for new ways to have an impact on those we serve.
