Each home is partnered with a local church who provide love and friendship for the tenants that you will also support. A part of the Team Lead’s role is to actively engage with the church and empower your team to do likewise. The role includes training, equipping, and encouraging staff to extol professional excellence and spiritual passion whilst also supporting church volunteers in their role as befrienders to the tenants. 

Our tenants will have experienced homelessness and present with a variety of support needs. You, your team and your church partners will work together to empower every individual tenant to reach their full potential, take responsibility and step bolder into a brighter future where they’re confident and able to advocate for themselves and ensure they live the life they deserve.

About us

Peterborough was where Hope into Action began back in 2011. We are at the forefront of providing excellent quality supported accommodation to those that need it most in the city. Partnering with 11 churches, we currently have 17 homes each serving different demographics. 

We provide not just shelter and housing but also the friendship and community of a church. Together with 100 churches, Hope into Action UK provide direct support to people whom others have often given up on. Our first home had a real heart for men coming out of prison, but homes are now available for a wide range of people experiencing homelessness: people in recovery from addiction, people sleeping rough, women and children fleeing domestic violence, people coming out of rehab, former prostitutes, refugees, those suffering mental health issues and survivors of human trafficking.

We encourage others to use our model by franchising the idea. Our vision is for every church to lovingly provide the homeless with a home. The tragedy of homelessness is in every community. We believe that with our help, every church can do something about it.
