Each month here at The Atrium, we’ll be shining a light on a local charity doing incredible work in our community. Our goal is simple – to raise awareness, inspire support, and bring people together to make a difference.

August Spotlight: The Hope Hub

Based in Surrey Heath, The Hope Hub is a registered charity working to prevent and end homelessness in the borough and surrounding areas. Through compassionate, personalised support, they empower people facing housing insecurity, poverty, or crisis – helping them rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.

The Hope Hub by the Numbers (Apr 2024 – Mar 2025):

  • 269 people supported

  • 88% of clients with no fixed address were housed

  • Over 6,000 meals sourced and served

What do The Hope Hub do?

Housing Support: Emergency & day services, drop-in support, food parcels, and help with applications.

Empowerment Services: One-on-one support with benefit and housing applications, job hunting, and managing debt.

Wellbeing Support: Emotional wellbeing support and signposting to additional services for holistic care.

How You Can Help…

Your support has the power to change lives. Take Clive’s story for example: At 68, he was rough sleeping in a van that was later impounded. Isolated, unwell, and without ID or a bank account, Clive had no way forward – until he found The Hope Hub.

With their help, Clive regained his identity, accessed his pension, opened a bank account, and secured safe housing. He went from homelessness to hope — all because someone cared.

You can help more people like Clive by:

  • Donating (money, supplies, or food parcels)

  • Partnering as a business — offering mentoring, work trials, or sponsorship

  • Volunteering — roles available include admin support, kitchen help, driving, cleaning, and fundraising

  • Organising or joining a fundraiser — every event makes a difference
