The Regent Hall is a Salvation Army centre on London's Oxford Street. It is one of the oldest centres in London [1] having been founded by the founder of the army, William Booth in 1882.[2] The church is known across the world as the "Rink", because it was formerly a skating rink.[2]
The hall is known for its music, both for its own brass band which tours internationally,[3] and as a venue for visiting artists.[4]
The present officers are Majors Graham and Dawn Mizon, who succeeded Major Ray and Major Pat Brown.[5] in 2012.
