Charity Work

    Do goodOur charity work at Hope Academy is fundamental to our Christian Vision of 'serving one another through love'. Throughout the school year, pupils and staff work closely with a variety of local, national and international charities, such as St. Helens Food Bank, Warrington and Halton Hospital, Nugent, Christian Aid, Macmillan Cancer Support, Cafod, and Laughter Africa. We have a dedicated team of fundraisers in each year group who work with their House Team to help others.
