A Million acts of hope

For 2027, we’re excited to to get involved in a nationwide movement called “A Million Acts of Hope.” From 12–19 May 2027, 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 few years, 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.

More info will be available in February 2027 but in the meantime, we would love to hear from you if you think your group would like to take part next year - please fill in the form below. We are working closely with the national team who will be providing more resources in the new year.
