provides a home for as long as neede and meaningful work for up to 23 companions who have experienced homelessness and social exclusion, offering them an alternative route out of home- lessness within a supportive environment. Companions gain valuable skills through working in the charity’s two second-hand shops at Belsey Bridge Road, Ditchingham and on Market Place in Bungay, collecting fur- niture, van driving, and custom- er service. The trustees play an important role, offering their skills, knowledge and experi- ence to help in the development and governance of the charity. Milee Brambleby, a Conflict


Resolution Consultant, who has been a trustee at Emmaus Nor- folk & Waveney since 2014, said: “I was blown away when I had a tour of Emmaus – not just by the beauty of the site on the old All Hallows Convent grounds, but also by the work being done. Meeting the com- panions and understanding what they have lived and what the sta- bility of Emmaus meant to them was an eye-opener. It was the stories of the companions that made me certain that I wanted to


be a trustee.” Norwich-based Milee runs


her own business, Common Sense Services, offering work- shops on handling conflict and workplace mediations: “As a trustee, I bring my business head and experience in handling con- flict. I am part of the business development team looking after the social enterprise side of Emmaus Norfolk & Waveney. We work to see how we can develop our shops further and support the staff with guidance and advice.” Milee recognises that the role


of a trustee isn’t without its chal- lenges: “We’re not a board that turns up to meetings and then disappears for a month. We are


all actively involved in different aspects of the community and social enterprise and we’re very hands-on. However, while the challenges of a trustee role can be demanding, we equally get to do and see wonderful things, such as companion Barry getting a job, Matt getting a flat, or Dar- ren enjoying work experience with a local company – when that happens it more than com- pensates for the time that any trustee puts in.” The highlight of Milee’s expe-


rience of being a trustee is visit- ing the community in Ditching- ham and meeting new compan- ions: “New companions are often quiet, head down, and obviously hurting in a lot of ways. When I visit after a couple of months that new companion is looking you in the eye, smil- ing at customers, and maybe giving you a bit of cheek – it’s just glorious to see.” Milee is keen to get new trust-


ees on board to experience the huge sense of satisfaction that she receives in return for her time: “I get an enormous sense of belonging, being part of the community and being involved in a purposeful and important activity that isn’t about making money. The ethos behind Emmaus is entirely about sup- porting those that need it while


they take the time to rebuild their lives. I get a huge sense of satis- faction and it is a privilege to be involved in making that happen. “If you are looking for an


opportunity to make an immedi- ate and genuine difference to the life of someone that is really struggling, then this is for you. If you’re up for helping in a practi- cal way then you will get so much more back than you ever put in.” The charity is keen to encour-


age applications from anyone with professional backgrounds including, but not limited to, planning, quantity surveyor, building surveyor, architect, structural engineer, ICT, health & safety, finance, communica- tions, advertising, retail, direct marketing, fundraising and events management. Trustees meet as a board 12 times each year and individual trustees may also get involved in other ways, as their time permits. The charity provides full induction training and offers reimbursements for travel expenses. For more information about
