Our charity works across the Leicestershire and Rutland area; we've been helping people who have been homeless or at risk of homelessness since 2012.At Emmaus Leicestershire & Rutland, formerly homeless people and people at risk of homelessness find a place where they can enjoy companionship and support.We offer a home...We currently have space to accommodate 16 people at our accommodation ‘Elm Lea' in Hinckley, Leicestershire. Everyone has their own room and private bathroom whilst living in the community, as well as many large communal areas where they can socialise.We offer work...All companions (people we're supporting) work full time and there is work for everyone. Our two charity shops in Hinckley provide a commercial setting where skills can be learned in a friendly atmosphere.We offer a new beginning...Emmaus offers homeless people a fresh start in life with the support of the community around them. They can stay as long as they wish and are offered opportunities to acquire skills. Some stay for only a few months in order to get themselves back on their feet before returning to independent living, but for others Emmaus will become their permanent home. If a companion wants to move on, he or she will be assisted to find accommodation and work.
