Another very diverse week.
We had a delivery of new hi viz vests and even two for Harvey our canine mascot! Thank you Sam Pella from Pellacraft for donating these.
We are currently trying very hard to house three homeless individuals. It is a hard slog but we are hoping for success.
We have just conducted some support training. We are going to make it our mission to get every homeless person in the area registered with the council. This is actually not as easy as it may seem.
Due to the start of the school holidays, to keep our food parcels going, we have just bought an enormous Supermarket delivery order.
Our Daisy had her 30th birthday party and it was fancy dress! Spot the costume in our photos! Happy Birthday, Daisy.
Wendy from East Staffs Borough Council brought some hot dogs and burgers after am event in the Indoor Market.... as usual, they didn't last long! The Messy Hare Art Gallery always donate some beautiful cakes each weekend.
As usual last night ended up in A+E. New volunteer Josh and our Dan took a homeless man for treatment.
Let's see what tonight brings 🙂
Thank you for all of your very kind donations. Sorry that we have not posted a thank you for some time and we hope we have got all of our recent generous donors listed but please let us know if not and we can add you. Without your generosity, Burton HOPE would not be able to operate.

Thank you to all of our anonymous donors too.
Another exceptional week! We had some lovely food from Outwoods and Holy Trinity School to give out. Alex and sons, Charlie and Billy from Outwoods school came down to visit (see pic). Our Adrianne is standing in the Miss Derbyshire Inspiration and wore her sash at outreach (see pic).
On a less salubrious note, some of our homeless residents have been attacked again. We have reported this to the Chief Inspector who immediately informed the Burton Sergeants. The hot weather interspersed with heavy rain is bringing many trials to be overcome. We are currently still looking at ways to open up a drop in centre. We feel confident we will get this if we keep on pushing. We are still awaiting our charity status. The Charity Commission seems to have a huge backlog.
Some of the wonderful HOPE fundraising team ran a stall on Tutbury Market. Many thanks to Anne, Kay, Wendy, Daisy, Rachael and Gurdeep for making this a great success.
£282.94 was raised.
Thank you to The Tutbury Market committee for the stall and to Anthony at Thistley Meadow for the use of the gazebo.
It ain't half hot out on the streets at the moment. The extreme heat causes as many issues as extreme cold, making this last week or so exceptionally busy for us.
