Emmaus Greenwich (EG) is a UK charity that offers an alternative approach to homelessness by using a social enterprise model. The organisation provides a practical approach to tackling homelessness by offering “Companions”( i.e. formerly homeless people living in the Emmaus community) a realistic and sustainable alternative to life on the streets by working in the community business. At present, there are 29 Companions who all have fully furnished rooms of their own, and work together in the community’s reuse/recycling business.
