Welcome to Emmaus UK
Emmaus Communities offer homeless people a home, work and the chance to rebuild their lives in a supportive environment. There are currently 24 Communities around the UK and several more in development. New research by Just Economics forecasts that each year Emmaus Communities generate £11 for every £1 invested.
We rely on donations of good quality furniture and household goods from the public, which are sold in Emmaus shops. Find out about donating or buying items.
