Lighthouses are physical spaces of varying sizes in local communities, filled with kindness, belief, and hope. They are living expressions of love in action, vibrant hubs that host a range of creative projects to support, encourage, and empower those who find themselves on the margins. The Lighthouse is founded on and driven by its Christian values and ethos, as it seeks to express the love of God in action. We welcome volunteers of all faiths and none. The Lighthouse is part of the Emmaus Transformation Trust, charity no. 1069902.
