A 4-week course to help people understand the emotions they are experiencing when they lose someone close to them. Run in the Spring and the Autumn, the next course will commence Spring 2022. The course covers the journey of grief - the emotions and phases of adjustment involved, right through to how to survive the whole experience. If we can help, even before the course starts, please give us a call. One attendee wrote 'Understanding that the different phases of grief are normal, and no two days will be the same, helps. As does giving myself permission to grieve, then remembering to take responsibility for my own happiness.' Read More

Welcome to Hope Trust

Welcome to the work of The Hope Trust. We are a local Christian charity serving Felixstowe and the surrounding area, working with people aged 50+. Hope Trust is committed to both the practical and spiritual well being of older people and works to make later life a fulfilling and enjoyable experience. Our major focus is on the relief of loneliness and we seek to encourage people to come out of their homes, into a welcoming and relaxed setting, where they can meet up and chat with others; finding new communities and groups of people to connect with.

Coronavirus - Update

Monday, December 06, 2021

Due to the increased risk of the Omicron variant, the Trustees of Hope Trust have taken the decision to cancel the last 3 activities of 2021, so there is no Tech Cafe on Dec 21st, Wednesday Tea & Chat on Dec 22nd or Thursday Tea & Chat at OFCA on Dec 23rd. Activities resume on Wednesday 5th January between 10-12noon here at Maidstone Hall. With that news out of the way, here is something cheerier! We want to extend a warm welcome to Tracy (Haskins) our new Charity Manager. Tracy will be at events from Wednesday 5th January 2022 onwards and she would love you to pop in and say 'hello.' To Paul and Sheila it is time to say goodbye, but also 'Thank You' for all you have brought us over the years. Thank you and Adieu as you look forward to your retirement. Anne Fenning Chair of Trustees 20th December 2021
