Emmaus Greenwich is <i>more</i> than just a bed for the night.
The Emmaus Model

Emmaus Greenwich is more than just a bed for the night.

When someone joins our community as a companion, they are welcomed into a place they can call home, where they receive support, training, and work opportunities. Your support of our charity shops makes this possible. By living in a stable environment and having the chance to learn new skills, our residents can rebuild their self-esteem and confidence, empowering them to get back on their feet.

Our shops play a vital role in the success of our community. They not only generate essential income to support our community home of 45 residents but also provide valuable opportunities for our companions to develop skills and gain meaningful work experience.

You can support our community by visiting our shops in Plumstead and Poplar, where you’ll find quality second-hand items at great prices.

“Emmaus has given me a purpose and a reason to get up in the morning.”
