Emmaus Salford is honoured to have received The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, the highest award a voluntary group can receive in the UK.
We’re supporting vulnerable residents from across Salford by offering affordable food and household essentials from our Lucie’s Pantry social supermarket.
The People’s Pods at Emmaus Salford, run in partnership with Salford City Council, are helping people on their journey out of homelessness.
Michael, Emmaus Salford companion“I’d say to all the people who support Emmaus, keep helping us out. We are doing good things and want to keep on doing good things – for ourselves and the wider Salford community.”
Pat, former Emmaus Salford companion“Since I joined Emmaus I’ve been the happiest I’ve been for a long time, especially here at Emmaus Salford.”
Paul Dennett, Mayor of Salford“It’s organisations like Emmaus and others within our great city that pull together in these times of austerity to provide real opportunities for people in desperate, destitute situations.”
Jenni, former Emmaus Salford companion“Emmaus is an opportunity to live instead of surviving. It has given me confidence, a new beginning and a life.”
Rebecca Long Bailey, MP for Salford and Eccles“I would like to congratulate all those involved in the project and the companions at Emmaus who are providing a fantastic resource for the residents of Salford.”
Her Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant of Greater Manchester, Mr Warren Smith“I was extremely impressed by the whole project and what a warm and inviting place it is. Emmaus Salford is a remarkable charity that cares for and respects people (and they do good cakes too).”
