Why donate to Emmaus Leeds?

Why donate to Emmaus Leeds?

One very important way in which you can help Emmaus Leeds is to donate items which we can then sell. All the proceeds raised from your donated items will go directly to support formerly homeless people at our Leeds community.

We depend on your continued support and kind donations to keep us going and we always do our utmost to sell, recycle or re-use to generate an income from everything you give us.

COVID-19 safety measures

Based on the latest COVID-19 guidance to charity shops, we are able to carry out collections and have updated our risk assessments. When a collection booking is confirmed over the phone, you will be asked some questions to help determine the level of risk to our teams. We are unable to collect items from any household with someone showing symptoms of COVID-19, shielding or self-isolating.

To help reduce the risk of virus transmission, we ask that where practical, furniture to be collected is left as close to the front door as possible. It is always at the driver’s discretion if an item can be collected or not, based on the quality of the goods and the level of risk to our collection team.
