About us
Who we are
The London District of the Methodist Church serves to enable and champion the work of Circuits and Churches in the Greater London area. It is set up in a collaborative structure, currently with two Chairs, Revd Nigel Cowgill and Revd Dr Jongikaya Zihle, working together with a team of paid and voluntary officers to support and develop the life of the District.
The District is home to many projects established within our circuits, including those focused on homelessness and housing, food poverty and youth work. There are also a number of educational institutions within the District.
The team serves all registered Methodist Churches in London, and many more people who are involved in our work and worship. To find out more about what the London District is involved in, check out 'What we do' page on our website.
Equality, diversity and inclusion policy
The District is committed to equal opportunities, anti-discrimination and anti-oppressive policy and practice. No one we have contact with may be discriminated against either directly or indirectly on the grounds of gender, race, nationality, religion, cultural group, marital status, sexual orientation, age or impairment. The policies apply to job applicants, employees, volunteers, users and beneficiaries of our services.
The District has a zero-tolerance approach to harassment towards our staff and volunteers, regardless of whether it is physical, verbal or non-verbal. This includes sexual harassment or abusive behaviour.
