Homeless Not Hopeless is a voluntary organisation established on the 5th December 2019 by our founder Matt. Matt understands the immense challenges and struggles, both emotionally and physically, which can make it even more difficult to 'get back on your feet.' He now runs HNH with the support of a committed team of trustees and volunteers, all with different backgrounds and expertise. Be it throu
gh anger or compassion, our determination comes from the injustice that is homelessness in 21st Century Britain. We are currently an Unincorporated Association with the aim of becoming charity status as soon as possible. www.hnh.org.uk
▸ What We Do ◂
Our Outreach Team serve food and hand out clothing, toiletries and necessities to the homeless and less fortunate every week, as well as providing a food bank service. We love having a chat and are available to signpost people to relevant organisations.
Whether it's a hot meal, some warm clothes or just a friendly face, we are on hand to help and support people in need.
