AT FLAGSHIP, WE DON’T SIMPLY WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO OUR CUSTOMERS AND THEIR COMMUNITIES – WE WANT TO SOLVE THE HOUSING CRISIS TOO. OVER THE LAST YEAR, WE HAVE BEEN WORKING HARD TO ESTABLISH HOPESTEAD, WHICH WE INTEND TO BE OUR NEW CHARITY THAT SUPPORTS FLAGSHIP’S GOAL AND IS COMMITTED TO END HOMELESSNESS IN THE EAST OF ENGLAND.

By working in partnership with local authorities, charities and social enterprises, Hopestead aims to prevent, reduce and alleviate homelessness, help to build sustainable communities and ensure everyone has a place to call home.

We didn’t expect to launch Hopestead so soon. However, due to COVID-19 we had to think differently and ask ourselves what else we can do now. We know COVID-19 has the potential to further increase homelessness, particularly with social renters being most at risk. We have an opportunity and responsibility to #StandTogether, do something positive and help those who need it most. So, we have brought our initiative forward.

The pandemic has affected everyone and changed the perspective of many. Communities are now more important than ever. People are going above and beyond to help the most vulnerable, and we’ve seen so many great things happening across the Group. Hopestead wants to enhance this work and provide teams with additional support to help keep people in their homes – because everyone deserves a place to call home.

We will share more information as things progress, but if you have any ideas, know of areas where we can do more, or would like to offer your help – please contact us below.

Could you cycle 1,000 miles from Land’s End to John O’Groats? 🚴‍♀️

That’s the epic undertaking that Colin and Rob have challenged themselves to complete to raise money for Hopestead! They even managed to get some *very* snazzy Hopestead jerseys too, which we love ❤️

We’re hugely grateful to these two for taking on such an epic feat in support of what we do.

They set out on Sunday, 30 April so are several stages into the 11-day journey from tip to top of the country – last we heard, they were somewhere between Gloucester and Wolverhampton with roughly 300 miles down.

Our legs ache in sympathy, and if yours do too, we’d be thrilled if you were able to give any amount to help us towards our goal of tackling homelessness in the east of England (link in bio)!

Drop any words of encouragement you have for the dynamic duo of Colin and Rob in the comments and we’ll make sure they see them – thank you again you two!
