New Hope was established by Jean Wilson, a mother of a child with disabilities.

The need for the project was identified by Jean when she could not find suitable specialist daytime respite care for her daughter, Emily. She thought there must be other parents and carers in Worcestershire who were experiencing the same difficulty in finding a service which was open every school holiday and every Saturday throughout the year so she sought the opinions of other parents/carers and professionals the results were as she suspected, there was indeed a need for a new innovative project. With the help and support of Worcester Community Housing leasing the project a building rent free and donations from Worcester Round Table, Mencap, Tesco and the Lotto, New Hope was born on 28th July 2010.

We are a non-profit provision working with families who have children with disabilities and complex health care needs. New Hope is registered with Ofsted (number EY415233).

New Hope Worcestershire is a charity and Company Limited by Guarantee (1149659) and a Community Interest Company limited by shares (7113542 England). Registered Office 35, Wells Road, Worcester, WR5 1NN.

THE BREATHFEST MISSION

Nothing beats a breath of country air!

We work in Partnership with Breathfest who raise both awareness and funds for COPD and Farmers Lung. It was founded by Zoe Phillips in 2015, and with her dedicated team of Happy Helpers they create mini-fundraising events throughout the year to raise funds for the main music festival in the summer.

Breathfest is family-oriented and completely non-profit, giving all proceeds to charity. The monies are split between St. Michael's Hospice, Bartestree (Registered Charity 511179) which provides excellent care and respite for COPD sufferers and one other organisation chosen each year.
