"...over the last six months we have seen a huge increase in people who are new to rough sleeping, they are the most vulnerable, the most at risk. With the rise in the cost of living, some people just cannot afford basic rented accommodation."
Polly. Founder and CEO Amazing Opportunities CIO
We survive on donations together with the proceeds of what we can sell, and are thankful to our fundraising team, but sadly it's never enough to help everybody who approaches us - That's why we urgently need your help and generosity.
PLEASE Donate
With no statutory funding for our services we rely on donations from individuals, church groups, schools and businesses to supplement our fundraising activities to continue providing the much needed support and services to the homeless in Worcestershire.
PLEASE SUPPORT US
We are committed to help people in need by enterprise - we offer training and opportunity so individuals can make something that can be sold, that provides the income for their wages. Because of declining footfall in Upton High Street and soaring numbers in poverty we are launching a new free to use catering trailer which will give out hot tea and breakfasts and also give us the chance to engage with people in need and introduce our services.
We have planned a series of 'pop-up' shops within major chains and retail parks; a number of pitches at popular markets; a strong internet presence with our new on-line shop, and a link with a major publisher & greeting card supplier.
Please join us in 2026 !
​
We are proud of our links with Subtle Puns, the well known publisher of humorous books and greetings cards. Subtle Puns employ individuals we are helping to pack and print their amazingly funny books, creating a 'win win' for both enterprises - demonstrating how beneficial links with businesses can be for charities.​
using humour to help the homeless.
We are popping up all over the place!
Our new pop up shops can be found outside Next and Argos at Malvern Retail Park, At Morrison/Warner in Upton on Severn, in the Foyer of the Coop in Malvern Link, outside Waitrose in Great Malvern, the list goes on. Phone for details for our timetable of where you can buy, cards, candles, bird feeders, our famous button men, pictures, and special gifts for your friends and family!

GARDEN PLANTS
A really fast growing part of our enterprise!
We are very fortunate to have a couple of horticulturists with us at the moment, who are sowing and growing what seems like a never ending supply of garden plants for us. Flowers, shrubs, vegetables all ready for planting on. Available on our markets and pop-up shops in season, as well as the Upton store
Our outdoor showcase of creative talent.
En-Plein Air started as an outdoor arts and crafts market in Summer 2023 on Belle Vue Terrace in the centre of Malvern as a collaborative venture with Malvern District Council to promote local artists and demonstrate the skills of those we help at Amazing Opportunities CIO.
Starting again in the summer of 2026 in a new and exciting location - look out for details!
