SOLIDARITY EVENTS: Coffee and Cake sale and Spinathon 2023

We are very happy to announce our upcoming solidarity events for 2023!

Solidarity is a key part of the Emmaus ethos. As well as supporting companions to rebuild their lives after homelessness we do what we can to provide support to others who are vulnerable or experiencing difficult situations. Each year we host solidarity events where Emmaus SLC staff, Companions, trustees and friends work together to raise funds for beneficiaries chosen by the Emmaus SLC Solidarity Committee.

The beneficiaries chosen this year are Street Storage and Emmaus Europe Ukraine Fund. To learn more about our beneficiaries and the important work they are doing please visit their websites:
