Parts of the chapel's incredibly beautiful mosaic floor have come loose and urgently require specialist attention. We really need to make sure the intricate design is preserved for generations to come. Could you please help us raise £5,000 to do this?
Discover a tranquil world of art, fashion & history
Visit, film, exhibit, wonder, marry, celebrate, record, listen, show, dine, be. The Grade II* listed Fitzrovia Chapel, once the chapel of the former Middlesex Hospital and now beautifully preserved and restored, is a stunning hidden gem in the heart of the city. Never consecrated, the nineteenth century chapel is a luminous place to have a secular wedding, display a beautiful object, steep yourself in history and architecture or just sit and reflect.

A Gorgeous Space For All Occasions
