About Northfleet

An area that deserves more

This area has been identified as one of the neediest in terms of unemployment, low income and social deprivation. Our primary aim is to provide food for local people in crisis. We also want to create a place where local people can help each other when times are tough, and strengthen community ties.

Our Values

We will provide help to all in need

Hive Hope does not judge those we serve but does all we can to meet their immediate needs and work with them to find longer term solutions. Hive Hope serves all those in need, regardless of their beliefs.

The need for an organisation like Hive Hope is growing. We have fed over 30,000 local people to date - that's over 2,500 different people, on average nine times each. Demand for our services has increased by over a third compared to the same period last year.

We work with other organisations to signpost clients to a whole range of support services including job searches, benefits advice, CV writing, debt advice and budgeting help.
