Hope into Action

Susie ‘ I know for a fact that if not for Hope into Action, I wouldn’t be alive today’

The UK faces a profound homelessness crisis. Hope into Action empowers the church to respond. We create homes for those who suffer from homelessness.

Hope into Action is a national registered charity which started in Peterborough with the aim of enabling churches to house the homeless. The organisation provides not just shelter and housing, but also friendship. We work with churches to provide direct support to individuals whom others have often given up on. Our vision is for every church to lovingly provide the homeless with a home.

We offer temporary supported accommodation for those who have found themselves homeless or vulnerably housed with support needs.

Hope into Action offer shared accommodation in what are not just a place to live, but a home. Tenants are placed with one or two other people for up to two years, with a designated Empowerment Worker who works with them to support and empower them to achieve mutually agreed-on goals.

In October, we kicked off the celebration of our church partners across the Hope into Action Network.

Our church partners provide Friendship and Support Volunteers (F&S) who play a vital role in Hope into Action’s model. They provide counsel, friendship, mentorship, and various forms of practical support. On one day, it could be giving a tenant a ride to the hospital, and on another day, it could be taking a tenant out to see a live football match.
