🎉 Hope and Vision Communities turns Five! 🎉
This year, Hope and Vision Communities celebrates its fifth anniversary — five years since our founder, Tony, set up the charity alongside the former judge who once sentenced him. Together with our incredible trustees, team and supporters, they built a community that has now supported dozens of men in recovery and touched hundreds more lives.
To mark this milestone, Tony and former resident (now staff member) Leo were invited onto BBC Radio Berkshire, where they shared the story of our beginnings and the hope that drives our work today. Listen to part 1 and part 2 below!
To honour our five years, we’ve launched a special anniversary appeal:
🎯 Five donors
💷 £5,000 each
🌟 £25,000 to change lives
The “Five for Five” campaign will help us meet rising demand and open more safe, supportive homes for people leaving residential addiction treatment.
Could you stand with us — or introduce us to someone who might?
If you’d like to help, please contact
And if a major gift isn’t possible, a small or regular donation makes a huge difference, giving us the stability to plan for growth – you can do that here: Donate
Demand for safe recovery housing is higher than ever. We are ready to expand — but we cannot do it alone.
Thank you for supporting our work, following our updates and being part of this journey.
