Hope Debt Advice

Providing free, confidential debt advice . . .

Hope Debt Advice is available to help and/or advise anyone struggling with personal debt or for whom personal debt is a worrying issue. The service is provided absolutely free and entirely confidential to all persons. We can assist you in ascertaining your level of debt, negotiating with creditors on your behalf, and advising you on the course of action we believe you should take to free yourself from the burden of personal debt.  We are also able to advise you, if necessary, on how to set up and manage a personal financial budget. Contact us now on (01653) 692616.

Stepping Stones

Elim Ryedale’s Mums and Tots . . .

At Hope Central every Tuesday during term-time we provide two sessions, 10:00am til 11:30am and 12:45pm til 2:15pm, in an environment aiming to show care and consideration to Mums as well as to Tots. We have a timetable so that Mums and their Tots can engage with one another in certain activities as part of the sessions. It sets a very good example to the children and shows them that they are valued and important enough to spend quality time doing something together with you. We serve drinks and snacks around 10:30 am and 1:15pm for both parents and toddlers, followed by a craft activity. We would like to wrap the session up with a musical activity (i.e. Action songs) Other than this, it is free time. We want Stepping Stones to be an encouraging environment for Mums and their Tots. We hope you will encourage and support one another as well as encourage your children in their activities.

Marriage Course

Love, laughter, loyalty . . .

The Marriage Course is for any couple who wants to invest in their relationship, whether you have been together 1 or 61 years and whether you have a strong relationship or are struggling! The course takes place over eight evenings, once a week and costs £35 per couple. For further details please phone (01653) 697796.

The Besom

Sweep away suffering in Ryedale . . .

The Besom works with social workers and other care and health professionals to identify people in need and then seeks to match the needs to givers through prayer: the Besom is powered by prayer! The Besom is a bridge allowing those who have time, money, things and skills to reach those who are in need. It ensures what is given is used effectively. The service it provides is free. There are many ways to get involved. For more information please call (07896) 325363.

The Coffee House

Stylish, friendly, tasty…


The Coffee House will open with a new look for the coming season. We are still serving the same delicious beverages and food with a few additions here and there. We have a new gluten free section to our food menu and have added the very popular cool and creamy chilled out Latte and Hope Central Hot Chocolate to our drinks menu. Come in and relax on our new sofas with a morning coffee and slice of scrumptious cake or a traditional Yorkshire cuppa and teacake. Alternatively, chill out with a real fruit smoothie, creamy milkshake or a nicely chilled can. At lunchtime we have a range of tasty fillings; you can choose to have them in a roll, wrap, in oven baked jackets, with crisp, fresh salad or have a hearty bowl of piping hot fresh soup!
