Emmaus Greenwich
About Emmaus Greenwich
Emmaus Greenwich is a charitable organisation dedicated to supporting homeless individuals by providing them with a stable and supportive environment. Founded on the principles of community, compassion, and empowerment, we strive to help those in need regain their independence and dignity.
Our core activities include offering accommodation, work opportunities, and personal development programmes. We operate a social enterprise that sells donated goods, which not only generates income for our charity but also provides valuable work experience for our companions.
At Emmaus Greenwich, we believe in the power of community. Our companions, who are individuals experiencing homelessness, play an active role in the running of the organisation. They are involved in various aspects of our operations, from managing the shop to participating in outreach activities.
We are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and respected. Our vision is to end homelessness by providing sustainable solutions that empower individuals to rebuild their lives.
Through partnerships with local businesses and organisations, we aim to raise awareness about homelessness and advocate for systemic change. We also offer training and support to help our companions develop essential skills for future employment.
Emmaus Greenwich is more than just a place to stay; it is a community where individuals can find hope, purpose, and a path towards a brighter future.
