Emmaus Greenwich concerned over rise in local rough sleeping
Government figures released today by the Ministry for Housing, Communities, and Local Government show an increase in rough sleeping in London last year – a rise of 16% from 2023.
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.
Our work to help rebuild lives relies on the income generated from our shops — and it all starts with the pre-loved items you generously donate. Every donation directly supports our community, enabling us to provide a safe home, work opportunities, and vital support to people overcoming homelessness.
