The Church Lads' Brigade was formed in England in 1891 by Walter Gee as an Anglican youth organisation. He had been impressed with the non-denominational work of the Boys' Brigade and wanted to create a Church of England section within it. This was not allowed by his Vicar and so he formed his own separate organisation.
