The Royal Foundation of St.Katharine

Founded by Queen Matilda in 1147, the Royal Foundation of St Katharine has served as a centre for worship, hospitality and service over many centuries.The Foundation is starting a new phase in its long history as it renews its commitment to Worship, Hospitality and Service. In October 2015, The Foundation opened St. Katharine's Precinct, a community project made entirely from shipping containers and yurts which will be recycled at the end of the project. The project includes new facilities including a Wellbeing Hub, London's first Yurt Cafe & Reflective Space.
