Making a Difference

Here at Hope Community Church, we believe that God’s heart is for all people, but that he has a special affection for those who are vulnerable, hurting and forgotten. This is why, as a church, we run or support a number of organisations that seek to bring hope to those in our community who need it.

The Hope Hub

The Hope Hub is a community initiative set up by Hope Community Church, aimed at showing Jesus’ love by meeting practical needs. We offer clothing, household items, toys, chat and prayer at the King’s Centre, and partner with the Leicester South Foodbank and the Neighbour Hub to host weekly sessions at Boulter Crescent.

For inquiries, please contact Marilyn on 07862 736882 or email hub@hopechurchwigston.co.uk

Christians Against Poverty

CAP is a national charity providing free debt help across the UK.

Hope is home to CAP’s Leicester South Centre, where we offer help to individuals and familes struggling with debt. Combining financial advice with practical support, we try to show that there is hope to be found in every situation through Jesus.

For more information, please contact Marilyn at marilynallen@capuk.org

Foodbank

We understand that many individuals and families are struggling to feed themselves. At Hope, we run our own foodbank in partnership with the Trussell Trust. Open Mondays 6-7pm and Thursdays 1-2pm, we provide people with three days of emergency food provision. Whilst the parcels are being made up, people have a chance to speak to our advocacy services who are experts on housing, benefits, debt and other issues that can help lift people out of the poverty trap.

Jakin Pregnancy Care and Counselling

Jakin is a charity for anyone struggling with pregnancy issues, from unwanted pregnancies to abortions and miscarriages. They aim to offer a safe place for those who have undergone these experiences to talk freely and confidentially with one of their trained counsellors.
