Emmaus communities provide a home and meaningful work for people who have experienced homelessness, helping them to find a way to move on with their lives.

From house clearances to getting involved with the wider community, we offer a wide range of services.

There are many ways you can support us, from volunteering to donating goods. Your support means that we can do what we do best - helping those who need it most.

Are you, or someone you know, at risk of homelessness?

Your impact

There’s not many charities where as a donor or customer you could directly meet one of the beneficiaries. So, when you visit the Emmaus Oxford store to buy or donate something, chances are the person serving you is going to be a companion – you’re going to be meeting one of the beneficiaries of Emmaus Oxford and seeing the difference you are making by supporting us.

Pop by to see us Monday – Saturday from 9:30am to 5pm and Sunday from 10am to 4pm. You can also shop from the comfort of your own home 24/7 on our eBay and Depop stores.
