The Parish of Poplar was established in 1817. It has prayed, ministered and witnessed in Poplar through times of great change: the rise and fall of shipbuilding and docking, epidemics, rate rebellions, air raids and the rebuilding programmes of the ‘60s and ‘80s. The nuns of the Saint Frideswide Mission House even inspired the BBC series Call the Midwife.

Our mission is no less important today. We hope that this website will give you a flavour of our work in 21st-century Poplar.

The Parish of Poplar is served by five worshipping communities, All Saints, St Nicholas, Hope Street, St Saviours’ Primary School, and Republic Campus Ministry.
