At the inaugural United Guilds’ Service, in 1943, all the City Livery Companies and Guilds gathered in St Paul’s Cathedral to worship, and lift their spirits after the Blitz.  The Lord Mayor attended, along with the Sheriffs and the Court of Aldermen; the Lord Bishop preached the sermon.  The Service continues, in a similar form, to this day and remains one of the few occasions when the City Livery Companies and Guilds gather as one.  This year, the United Guilds’ Service will be held at St Paul’s Cathedral on the morning of Friday 28^th March, after which there is an opportunity to join with other Livery Companies for lunch.
