Having the focus of work opportunities and training are integral parts of community life. The social enterprise side of any Emmaus community helps to generate the income that will ultimately make our community self-sustaining, something every Emmaus is working towards.

Research conducted by Emmaus UK shows that 79% of people who have lived at Emmaus for a few months say that working and having something to do every day has been most beneficial part of their experience.

Our main activity is collecting donated furniture and household goods and selling these in Emmaus Greenwich’s charity shops and online: at Emmaus Greenwich Depop and on our Emmaus Greenwich eBay page.
