英国循道会（Methodist Church of Great Britain）是英国的卫理宗教会，也是全世界所有循道及卫理会的母会^[3]。1738年，它由英国人约翰·卫斯理（1703年－1791年）和其弟查理·卫斯理于伦敦创立，现在信仰者超20万人^[2]。英国循道会的最高组织是每年由会长举行的循道会年议会（Methodist Conference）。

The story of the origins and development of Methodism in what is now the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, therefore, is the story, first, of an eighteenth-century movement which gave birth to the whole Methodist enterprise and then of a nineteenth-century church whose influence reached out across the world through the missionary endeavors of the various British Connexions within and beyond the British Empire.
