Songs and Soup is an informal community choir that meets in the Parish Room every Tuesday at 1pm. The sessions last 45 minutes and are free, with a break over the summer holidays. There is no audition and no requirement to read music. The repertoire is show tunes, folk songs, pop songs and hymns. A bowl of soup follows the singing. The group is for people of all ages and abilities, and has been particularly welcomed by retired people, people living with memory difficulties, carers, and people on their lunch break. Songs and Soup was co-founded by Max Barley, Director of Music at Holy Trinity. He received the Chelsea Awards 2023 Community Hero prize for the work.

Holy Trinity Sloane Square

Welcome to Holy Trinity, the church of Sloane Square since 1890. Everyone is welcome.

Worship with us

  • Sunday, 11am, Choral Eucharist. Our principal service each week, sung by the choir. Junior Church meets alongside for children, and everyone is welcome to stay for tea, coffee and biscuits afterwards.
  • Sunday, 6pm, Choral Evensong. Sung by our own choir or a visiting one, in the traditional words of the Book of Common Prayer. Sherry afterwards.
  • Wednesday, 6.30pm, Said Eucharist. A quiet, spoken service in the Lady Chapel in the middle of the week.

Singing together

  • Songs and Soup, Tuesdays at 1pm. Our weekly singing lunch, open to everyone. There is no audition and no need to read music. You come, you sing, and you stay for soup afterwards.
  • The Children's Choir, Tuesdays at 4pm. Younger voices learn to sing and take their part in the music of Holy Trinity. No experience needed.
  • The Evensong Choir, around six Evensongs a term. Drawn from the church and beyond, for anyone who loves singing Evensong. If you have left university and want to revive your Evensong days, you are warmly welcome. Email Max at [email protected].

You would be very welcome at any service. If it is your first visit, or you have questions, there is more at sloanechurch.org, or call the Parish Office on 020 7730 7270.
