Hope Harbour Helping Homeless in Belfast
Donation protected
We are a group of volunteers who are 100% voluntary we rely entirely on private donations from supporters and followers.
Hope Harbour was founded on the principle that humanity is ONE family…we are brothers and sisters regardless of nationality, race, religion, class or any other label.
Unspoken Truths
Our teams get to the truths that politicians and sensational headlines hardly touch.
· We hear of lives filled with trauma and rejection right from childhood.
· Deep emotional scars leading to mental health issues. 90% of homeless have mental health issues – depression being the most common.
· Not to mention the lives of friends lost. In the past year 440 homeless people died in the UK – right before our eyes.
But other truths you rarely hear about either are:
· The level of empathy among many homeless that most of us struggle to match.
· The wisdom and social intelligence gained from a life of struggle.
· The courage to tell strangers about their deepest scars and to let the tears flow.
The homeless are human each and every one of them have feelings and we feel honoured to be part of there lives they are an amazing bunch and we think the world of them all.
