More than 1,300 people died while homeless last year. None of them deserved to die.
Many of the people who lost their lives had been sleeping rough, others were staying in emergency or temporary accommodation. What unites them all is their struggle to get the support they needed to change their lives.
Emmaus supports formerly homeless people by giving them a home, meaningful work in a social enterprise and an opportunity to get back on their feet again.
For many who experience homelessness, one of the biggest obstacles they must overcome is a loss of self-esteem, Emmaus provides people with a stable home and the opportunity to regain their self-worth, making a real contribution to their community.
Research shows that for every £1 invested in a community, there is an £11 social, environmental and economic return, with savings to the benefits bill, health services and a reduction in crime reoffending.
