From the Trustees, staff and volunteers at Hope, we would like to wish all our followers and supporters a peaceful and relaxing Christmas and a happy and healthy 2022.

Please note our opening hours up to Christmas.
We look forward to seeing you again on 4th January.
Wishing all our users a Wonderful Christmas and a Happy and Healthy 2022.

Feedback always helps us know if we’re on the right track… thanks to everyone who gives us comments and helps us make sure we keep offering what you need when you need it!

Some of you may have seen the recent posts in Bromyard Info about the plans to demolish Top Garage and build 20 houses and flats next door to The Hope Centre.

If you use the Centre and would like more info about this, please ask at reception.  If you don’t have access to a computer and would like to support, object or make a general comment about the application we can help.  More details are available on reception and at the Centre so if you know someone who is interested but isn’t on line please let us know and we can share this with them when they visit.

Full details of the planning application are here.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Please observe the following recommendations and guidance when accessing the Centre and its buildings and attending any of our services elsewhere:
