EMMAUS LEICESTERSHIRE AND RUTLAND 

Homelessness in the UKThere are more than 300,000 people in Britain who are destitute, with no proper home, or the means of acquiring one.Emmaus Communities offer more than food and shelter and provides a lasting solution that restores self-esteem and confidence. Emmaus provides home and work for the formerly homeless.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile recently
