HOW WE CAN HELP

Hope & Help is a calm, non-judgemental place to come for help, advice and inspiration. Whatever you need, from marriage and faith advice, to help with challenging subjects like drugs and alcohol, family conflict or bereavement, we are here.

Our Services

At Hope & Help, we provide support and advice to help you face life’s challenges, whatever form they might take.

TERMINAL ILLNESS SUPPORT

Being diagnosed with a terminal illness can be the biggest challenge in a person’s life. We offer free, personal support to share worries and concerns, to advise on practical issues, and to provide comfort when it’s needed. Most importantly, we ensure that no one need ever face this challenge alone.

DRUGS, ALCOHOL & GAMBLING SUPPORT

Alcohol, drug and gambling addictions can have a terrible effect on families. We offer advice about how to talk to children about staying safe, and a range of support services to help people who may be suffering in silence. This includes signposting to expert professional help.

BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT

The loss of a loved one can feel crushing, but being able to call upon support can really help. Starting from an Islamic perspective, we offer a free and confidential bereavement support service. Our trained volunteers can help with practical arrangements and offer family support and guidance as you deal with your grief.

REVERT MUSLIM SUPPORT

If you are interested in Islam or simply curious about what being a Muslim means, we will happily answer all your queries. Our qualified scholars are there to help people, whatever their interest or whatever stage they have reached in their personal journeys.

ISLAMIC WILLS & INHERITANCE

Islamic Law sets out clear rules that determine how a Muslim estate is to be divided between the heirs of the deceased. Our team of scholars offers expert support in working out the Islamic shares of the estate, and can also assist with will-writing and bequests.

FAMILY
COUNSELLING

Family relationships can sometimes be problematic, but our counselling service helps people to stay connected. Ours is a bridge-building role and we help family members to talk, to share concerns and to address any problems together, as a strong and supportive unit.

ASYLUM SEEKERS SUPPORT

People seeking refuge from war or persecution can find themselves in desperate need of support. Wherever we can, we provide that support, offering everything from food parcels to interpretation and translation services; from local area inductions to free children’s education.

SISTERS SUNDAY (SHABABAH)

A dedicated service for women to come together to look at the problems we
are facing in the community. Focusing on several age ranges from 13 to 16
year-olds, 16 to 25, and above 25 years of age.

Marriage Services

Marriage is sacred; it needs to be cherished and the company it provides enjoyed.
A happy marriage is built over time with dedication, sacrifice, respect, care, love, compassion and appreciation.

Marriage Support & Guidance

You and your spouse will not always see eye to eye on everything. But the way you both manage your disagreements is important. It can have a significant impact on your relationship. Our support service can help you to navigate the difficult times.

Couples
Counselling

Couples counselling is a short-term programme of counselling sessions. For some, it is the start of a longer process of discovery, while for others, a few sessions might be all they need to move on successfully in their marriages.

Muslim Spouse Introduction

We recognise that finding a spouse can be difficult. Your choice of husband or wife is a decision that will affect the rest of your life. Hope & Help is here to support you in that decision.
