A Million acts of hope
For 2026, we’re excited to partner with our friends at the Good Faith Partnership who organise the Bristol Warm Welcome Network, to get involved in a nationwide movement called “A Million Acts of Hope.” From 13–20 May, we want to encourage and highlight practical acts of hope happening across Bristol.
This week will celebrate both new community projects and the everyday acts of hope already taking place in our neighbourhoods. Over the last 18 months, it has been great to see the work by Bristol City Council, Voscur and SARI around ‘community cohesion’ and bringing organisations together to talk, be challenged and mobilised to change our communities. Together, we continue working to build Bristol as a City of Hope.
We would love to see as many VCSE organisations, and faith groups as possible taking part by sharing on websites/social media and celebrating the acts of hope they are already doing in their communities during this week and into the future.
