Help local people move from crisis to stability

Every day, people facing homelessness, poverty and social exclusion turn to Emmanuel House for support.

As an independent Nottingham charity, we provide practical help, specialist support and a pathway forward for people who are homeless, rough sleeping, in crisis or at risk of homelessness. During the year April ’25 to March ’26, we supported more than 1,330 people across Nottingham.

But we cannot do this without the support of our community.

Whether you choose to make a one-off gift, become a regular donor or make a larger financial contribution, your support helps people move from crisis to stability and independence.

Donate today and be part of the solution to homelessness in Nottingham.


Direct debits and regular giving

A monthly donation gives us something incredibly valuable: certainty.

Regular support helps us plan ahead, maintain essential services and respond to increasing demand from people experiencing homelessness and crisis. It allows us to invest in long-term support that helps people rebuild their lives.

No matter the amount, becoming a regular donor helps create a stable future for Emmanuel House and the people we support.

You can set up a direct debit via our donation page. We use GoCardless for our direct debits.

If you’d like to set up a standing order through your bank account, please email: donations@emmanuelhouse.org.uk.

Single transactions

Please use this form to make an online donation. For single transactions, we use payment processing platform Stripe.


Major gifts and bank transfers

Larger donations allow us to plan ambitious projects, respond to emerging needs and provide support for more people across Nottingham.

If you are considering making a larger donation, we recommend donating by bank transfer. This ensures that more of your donation goes directly towards supporting people experiencing homelessness and crisis.

Every significant gift helps strengthen the sustainability of our services and ensures local people continue to have somewhere to turn when they need support most.

If you’d like to discuss making a major gift, please contact Rosie Needham-Smith – Fundraising and Grants Manager Rosie.NeedhamSmith@emmanuelhouse.org.uk.

Payroll Giving

Payroll giving is one of the most tax-effective ways you can give to charity. Donations are taken from your gross pay, or pension, after your National Insurance contributions have been deducted, but before Income Tax is calculated and removed.

You receive tax relief on your donation. The amount will differ depending on the rate of tax you normally pay, making your money go further at no additional cost to you.

Donations made through payroll giving provide charities like Emmanuel House with a regular and dependable source of income. As a result, we can plan more effectively, which supports our long-term resilience.

Check if your employer offers a payroll giving scheme as part of your employee benefits. More information about the scheme is available here: The basics you need to know about payroll giving | CAF

Every person who comes through our doors has their own story, challenges and hopes for the future. With your help, we can continue providing practical support, compassionate guidance and opportunities for people to rebuild their lives.
