Our Commitment
Our community-conscious commitment is embedded in our identity as well as our company mission. Find out how we are working to increase our positive social impact. With several exciting initiatives in the pipeline, we are grateful to work with several organisations in making a positive difference to the world and encourage others to be part of our journey.
Charity of the Year
Emmaus supports formerly homeless people by giving them a home, meaningful work in a social enterprise and an opportunity to regain lost self-esteem to help rebuild their lives. There are currently 29 Emmaus communities across the country, supporting more than 800 companions (formerly homeless people) in the UK.
Emmaus communities deliver a significant return on investment. Research shows that for every £1 invested in a community, there is an £11 return, with savings to the benefits bill, health services and a reduction in crime re-offending.
Gradient are proud to be working closely with Emmaus Burnley, one of the 29 communities in the UK.
