"In the late 60s the first wave of heavy guitar idols were usually Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck. Bromham's past work should be reappraised as he clearly slipped through the net"

	Emmaus Bolton Emmaus Bolton is a registered charity concerned with homelessness and recycling. We offer a place to live to people who have been homeless and are willing to help in the recycling business we run from the Community at Derby Barracks in Bolton. Our aim is to become self-sufficient financially as soon as possible, by collecting and selling donated furniture and household goods and eventually other business ventures will be incorporated
	Emmaus Brighton and Hove Emmaus Brighton & Hove is the largest Emmaus Community in the UK. We have 40 resident Companions who staff our two shops and café. We are situated in Portslade on the south coast of England 4 miles west of the centre of Brighton. We offer a home and work to 40 men and women, many of whom have been homeless. We have been called 'the homeless charity that works'. If you are thinking of applying to live in our community or would like to help someone else apply then you will find more information including our rules, the work residents have to do, and an application form on our referrals page. Several of our residents tell the story of what brought them to Emmaus on our Companion stories page.
	Emmaus Bristol Emmaus Bristol is a charity for formally homeless people, part of the worldwide Emmaus Movement and a member of the Emmaus UK Federation. The purpose of Emmaus is to provide a home, work and support for destitute and homeless people in a supportive community. People are accepted for who they are and valued for the contribution they can make. The work of Emmaus involves taking unwanted household items, restoring where necessary and selling on to support the community. The objective of every Emmaus community is to become self supporting through its industry.
	Emmaus Colchester We are proud to have accomplished the completion of our Community residence which was opened in August 2008. This could not have been acheived without our funders, the members of the public who donate to, and buy from, our furniture stores, and the efforts of our volunteers, staff and trustees. We are delighted to announce that Emmaus Colchester have been named Palladian Press 'CHARITY OF THE YEAR'. Please visit our news pages for a link to their publication.
Emmaus Coventry and Warwickshire The community house has been the home of Emmaus in Coventry & Warwickshire since 1993. It is an old building dating back to about 1650 with many special features. Since Emmaus restored and moved into the building in 1993 it has accommodated many people who would otherwise have had no home. Emmaus over the last 12 years has given those men and women a home, voluntary employment but more importantly a reason to get out of their bed. Moreover Emmaus Communities give people a real feeling of belonging, which in turn gives them confidence and self respect. All of which if you are homeless and on the streets is driven out of you by the way other people treat you.
Emmaus Glasgow Emmaus Glasgow was initiated in 1997 and established as a Scottish registered charity and company limited by guarantee in 1999. The community opened in January 2006 with our first 2 companions. In accord with Emmaus principles, it is planned that the community will eventually be self sufficient, self financing and able to assist others in the local community and beyond.
Welcome to Emmaus Gloucestershire! Emmaus Gloucestershire is home to 22 Companions. We tackle the problems of homelessness by offering people a home, work and a sense of belonging. Companions, as residents are called, regain dignity, build self-esteem and learn skills through living together and working on the Community's reuse business and solidarity projects.
	Emmaus Greenwich Emmaus Greenwich gives homeless people the opportunity to get off the streets and into a structured life within the Community. It was opened in 1994 by HRH the Prince of Wales and has contributed to the reduction of homelessness in the UK over the years.
	Emmaus Hampshire The Emmaus Hampshire Community provides formerly homeless people with a supportive environment in which to live, work and rebuild their lives. Companions, as residents are known, are given the support they need to enable them to regain control over their own lives and to help those less fortunate than themselves.
Welcome to Emmaus Leeds Like all Emmaus Communities, Emmaus Leeds is a charitable business which helps homeless people (Companions) to help themselves by providing a home and work in a supportive environment. Companions live "above the shop" which supports the running costs of the Community and provides an opportunity for Companions to develop skills and self-respect through working and contributing. Our Community was four years old on 3rd November 2007 and what an eventful four years it has been!
	Emmaus Mossley At Emmaus Mossley we offer a home and work to previously homeless and unemployed people. The project aims to be self-sufficient by collecting and selling donated goods such as furniture, bric-a-brac, antiques, electrical appliances, clothing, books, toys, etc.
	Emmaus Oxford Emmaus Oxford is part of Emmaus International - a charitable movement that provides a unique alternative to conventional services for homeless people.
