Emmaus Suffolk works with vulnerable, socially isolated or long-term unemployed people and those at risk of homelessness across the county. Read more about their stories and those of our staff and trustees here.
"I have been able to turn all of the things I have experienced into a positive and use them to help other people. It helps me to understand people who are in that space, offer them some inspiration that if I can come through that and live my life the way I am now, they can too."
Becoming a volunteer at Emmaus Suffolk has transformed my life. It has given me a sense of wellbeing; a sense of purpose. I no longer feel like I am just wasting away. There’s always someone there to talk to, I smile more now, and I properly laugh.
It’s about investing, but not about investing money. It’s about investing time and energy into creating an environment in which our companions can thrive.
