The Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem is a working order of chivalry led by His Majesty The King. It traces its origins back a thousand years and has a long, proud and fascinating history. Our events are often supported by dignitaries such as members of the Royal Family, Lord Lieutenants, High Sheriffs, mayors, civic leaders and prominent figures from around the global Order of St John. This is your opportunity to be involved in continuing the proud traditions of the Order and shaping it for the future.
