The video gives a snapshot of how we helped people in the winter of 2017/8

Hope4 aims to relieve poverty among homeless and badly-housed people in the Borough of Rugby and works to prevent homelessness. Hope4's strategies are to :-

Run a day centre, the Hope Centre, for homeless and badly-housed people.

Run a 'food ministry', Hope4U, providing hot food and drinks to adults in need. (Currently suspended for saftey & staffing reasons)

Run the Rugby Foodbank in conjunction with the Trussell Trust.

Run a Winter Shelter providing supper, beds and breakfasts for up to 15 rough-sleepers a night during the winter months

Work with local agencies that help homeless people, or people in danger of becoming homeless

Influence the homeless support projects implemented by Rugby Borough Council

To help us to achieve some of these goals we applied for a Big Lottery Fund grant in 2017. We were successful and were granted 3 years funding for a specific project on top of what we already do.
