Our Neighbourhood

EXPLORE CHELSEA

Chelsea is one of the most affluent and fashionable neighbourhoods in London. It has a rich history, with a mix of elegant Georgian and Victorian architecture alongside modern, high-end shops and restaurants. Chelsea is known for its beautiful parks, including the Chelsea Physic Garden and Battersea Park. The neighbourhood is home to some of London's most iconic landmarks, such as the Royal Hospital Chelsea and the Saatchi Gallery. Chelsea also has a fascinating and quirky history that dates back centuries. From the swinging sixties to the birthplace of punk rock, Chelsea has been at the forefront of many cultural and artistic movements. It was once the stomping ground of bohemians, artists and musicians, with The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, and Jimi Hendrix all calling the area home at one time. Today, the area retains its unique character and charm, with many independent shops, galleries, and restaurants reflecting its rich cultural heritage.

SAATCHI GALLERY

Since 1985, Saatchi Gallery has presented contemporary art exhibitions showcasing the work of emerging artists. Exhibitions which drew upon the collection of Charles Saatchi, led to Saatchi Gallery becoming a recognised authority in contemporary art globally.

In 2019 Saatchi Gallery became a registered charity and begun a new chapter in its history.
