Hope into Action: Southampton

Hope into Action: Southampton is a project of City Life Church Southampton. It is a franchise, and part of the wider Hope Into Action UK network – a Christian housing project set up to help break the cycle of housing poverty.

We opened our first home in October 2020 and despite covid, we have opened several more homes since. We're currently working towards opening our sixth house and are actively looking for new church partners to help us grow further and help the Church in our city to play its part to #makehomelessnesshistory.

We house people who are seeking to move on from a variety of forms of homelessness, whether ex street homeless men, recovering addicts, refugees, women fleeing domestic abuse and more. If you'd like to partner with us in some way, we'd love to hear from you!

About Hope into Action UK

Hope into Action is a registered charity whose unique purpose is to enable churches to house the homeless. Work began in summer 2010 with a handful of people passionate about changing homelessness in the city of Peterborough.

We provide not just shelter and housing know-how but also friendship. Together with over 85 churches we provide direct support to people whom others have often given up on.

The original home had a real heart for men coming out of prison. Homes are now available for a wide range of "homeless", 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.

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, you and your church can do something about it.
