Hope City Church (formerly a multisite church until 2021). It is a charity consisting of 6 autonomous UK churches based in the United Kingdom. It was launched in Sheffield in 1991 by Dave and Jenny Gilpin who left Australia after viewing the Hillsborough Disaster in Sheffield. Hope City Church was founded in Sheffield in 1991 by Dave and Jenny Gilpin, who had been a part of an Assemblies of God church in Brisbane, Australia. After seeing the Hillsborough disaster in 1989 on television in Australia Dave and Jenny went to investigate the possibilities of starting churches in the UK. After a three-week speaking tour of small churches across England in December 1990, they returned at Easter 1991 to pioneer the church, which was first called The Hope of Sheffield Christian Church. It has been described as "a church that was born out of tragedy – and a church, which is based around one crucial four-letter word: hope." The Church was once noticed when it undertook a big advertising campaign, which included the use of large billboards and the sides of buses to promote the organisation and assert that it was not a "traditional" church.
