Filming Our Storytellers
As part of St Peter’s 200 anniversary celebrations, we wanted to discover, capture and share forgotten and untold stories about the church from across generations, with a particular focus on working class histories.
Celebrating 200 Years
For two centuries, St Peter’s Church has stood as a symbol of faith, community, and architectural beauty in the heart of Brighton. The church has been a witness to countless moments of joy, reflection, and resilience, serving as a spiritual home for generations. It remains a landmark of the city’s rich heritage.
