One-off Volunteering Days

We welcome volunteer groups at Emmaus.  Your time and effort make a huge difference to our work. To help us make your volunteering experience as rewarding and impactful as possible, we ask for a suggested donation of £50 per person.

Why do we suggest a donation?
Hosting a successful volunteering day takes planning and resources, and your contribution helps cover a few key costs:

  • Materials and Supplies: From gardening tools to painting supplies, we make sure you have everything needed to get involved.
  • Staff Time and Coordination: Our team puts in time to plan and support your day, making sure it’s impactful and well-organised.
  • Lunch and Refreshments: We want to keep everyone happy and energised throughout the day.

Your contribution enables us to continue our day-to-day operations while ensuring that your volunteering day is both meaningful and memorable.

Thank you for choosing to volunteer with us — we can’t wait to welcome your team!
