Emmaus South Wales

Call Directions Website Contact the organisation

The only Emmaus community in Wales, supporting people out of homelessness and back into employment. We are a homelessness charity with a difference.

We offer a home, work experience and a purpose. We opened the first Emmaus community in South Wales. There are currently 29 Emmaus Communities open across the UK, but this is the only one in Wales! The Emmaus South Wales community can accommodate up to 24 formerly formerly homeless people, called companions, who come off benefits (except housing benefit) and take up full-time work experience in the our social enterprises. Companions can stay for as long as they need and get support to gain extra qualifications for when they are ready to find their own accommodation and look for work. We have four shops which operate as charity shops and provide work opportunities for our companions and the funding to keep our community going. We also have an online shop and most recently launched Porthcawl's tourist attraction, Lucie the Land Train. Bridgend AM and First Minister Carwyn Jones was delighted to open the first Emmaus Community in Wales on 22 January 2016. HRH The Duchess of Cornwall has also visited the Community too.

Emmaus South Wales were proud to attend the Neath Port Talbot Armed Forces Festival in Aberavon last weekend, represented by Trustee Lorraine and Companion Julie. 💚

The festival honours veterans, serving personnel and their families, while remembering those who lost their lives in conflicts.

Alongside other charities supporting the Armed Forces community, our team had an enjoyable and worthwhile day connecting with organisations working directly with veterans, sharing information about the work of Emmaus South Wales, raising awareness of our support for people experiencing homelessness and highlighting the importance of working together to help those who need it. 💚

A big thank you to the festival organisers and everyone who took the time to speak with us! 🙏
