The British Council of Churches was created in 1942. It began with sixteen member denominations and its basis was the same as that agreed in 1938 for the proposed World Council of BCC. However, this was tempered 'with the understanding that any body which has hitherto been represented on the Commission (of the Churches for International Friendship and Social Responsibility) shall continue in membership of the Council, if so willing, even though it does not itself accept the basis'.

This enabled the Society of Friends and the Unitarian and Free Christian Churches to be associated with the new body. The Roman Catholic Church was unable to be a member for its own reasons but after the Second Vatican Council's Decree on Ecumenism, it was invited as an observer and continued its involvement until 1990 when the BCC gave way to the new 'Churches Together' ecumenical instruments.

The Catholic Times was a weekly newspaper for Roman Catholics in Great Britain and Ireland. Founded in 1860, it was published in Manchester, United Kingdom, by the Universe Media Group as a companion paper to The Universe with which it merged 1 May 2020.

The Catholic Universe was founded in 1860, just two years after the apparitions of Our Lady at Lourdes, and six years after Pope Pius IX defined the dogma of the Immaculate Conception.
The first copies of The Universe were published on Saturday, December 8, 1860 – at a cover price of one penny (1d) – from 43 Lamb’s Conduit Street, London WC. By selling for 1d, The Universe hoped to be a weekly paper “within the reach of all classes”. The Tablet, by comparison, cost 6d. Annual subscription cost 4s 4d and advertisements 6d for three lines, with each additional line costing 2d.
Fifty years later, Friday December 1910, The Universe incorporated Catholic Weekly, increased in size to 20 pages. By 1910, The Universe was giving news from all over the country, not just from London. Another 50 years, on Thursday 8 December 1960, The Universe celebrated its centenary and the cover price was now 4d.
On the 7th October 1990, the first issue came from Manchester. It had moved from Bowling Green Lane to Oxford Street, Manchester, and had introduced desktop publishing using Apple Mac computers.
In April 2015 the operation moved to the Guardian Print Centre in Manchester, and The Catholic Universe moved from a tabloid to the Guardian's larger Berliner format. New sections were launched, including a weekly Around the Parishes supplement, and a Weekend Companion pullout of family-centred non-religious news and features.
In March 2019 the Guardian Print Centre closed, and the paper relocated to new offices at Oakland House, Stretford, Manchester.
On 1st May 2020, The Catholic Times was merged with The Catholic Universe to create a single publication

The Old Roman Catholic Church in Great Britain was founded by Archbishop Arnold Harris Mathew in 1910 as a continuation of the Church of Utrecht in the United Kingdom. Mathew left the Old Catholic Church of the Netherlands over what he felt was a movement away from Roman Catholicism. The Church holds seven sacraments, apostolic succession, devotion to the Virgin Mary and the Saints, and maintains other Catholic doctrines while excluding those added after 1870. Mathew was succeeded by Archbishops Bernard Mary Williams, George Gerard Shelley, Geoffrey Peter Paget King, James Charles Headley-Thatcher, Dennis St. Pierre, Douglas Lewins, and William Myers.
