**Emmaus History**
The Emmaus movement was founded by a French cleric and MP, Abbé Pierre (Father Henri-Antoine Groués), in 1949. A former Capuchin monk, he trained for the priesthood and was ordained in 1938. During the Second World War he worked for the French Resistance. He took many Jewish families and others under threat over the mountains into Switzerland and was later denounced to the Gestapo, but managed to escape and join the Free French forces in North Africa. His war ended as a senior naval chaplain, and despite his opposition to the Gaullists, he was persuaded by General De Gaulle to stand for parliament.
It was with another former resistance worker, Lucie Coutaz, that he established the first Community. To begin with, he simply opened his own presbytery to homeless people who he found on the streets of Paris. He had planned his large, dilapidated house in Paris suburb of Neuilly Plaisance, to be a student hostel fostering reconciliation among Europe's post-war generation. But already it was pointing in the direction he was to go; it was being shared with 18 homeless men on whom went his whole salary, buying war-surplus materials for them to put up temporary homes, first in his own large garden. Gradually these Communities, whose members became known as Les Chiffoniers d'Emmaus (the rag pickers of Emmaus), took on a dynamic of their own as the 'companions' and showed they could support themselves by using skills learned whilst they had been living on the streets. By recycling, refurbishing and re
- circulating other people's rubbish, the Communities were eventually able to make enough income to support themselves.
**The Emmaus Movement in the UK**
Emmaus Cambridge was the first community to open in the UK in 1991. Since that time many more communities have opened, providing a home, meaningful voluntary work and support for formerly homeless people. There are many other Emmaus groups throughout the UK, all at different stages of development and all with the aim of creating new communities.
Every Emmaus Community in the UK is a separate registered charity under the umbrella organisation, Emmaus UK that offers advice and support to all Emmaus projects across the UK and raises funds nationally to support the growth of the Emmaus Movement.
