About Emmaus
Emmaus is a movement of charities that support people who have experienced homelessness and poverty. In our local Emmaus communities, we end homelessness one person at a time.
No one's life should be defined by homelessness. Together, we support people to put their lives back on track and build a better future. We see the person, their strengths, and the future they want to create. Building on each person's abilities, Emmaus offers skills and work opportunities with a home and place to belong - we're there at every step of their journey out of homelessness.
Emmaus UK is a national charity that supports and connects all Emmaus communities and groups across the UK. We bring people together, amplifying their voices and experiences to campaign for fundamental change to prevent homelessness and end this crisis.
