New home. New start.
New hope.
A hand up,
not a hand out.
Embassy is a Greater Manchester-based charity that helps people break the cycle of homelessness by providing a home, skills training and wraparound support.
Our approach is to reintegrate people back into society by helping them to find work and a home of their own, reducing the pressure on local councils. We build our residents’ confidence and give them the life skills to be independent.
Now, we’re taking the next step with Embassy Village, a new community of 40 high quality homes in Manchester with a village hall and green space for sports, socialising and growing plants.
We do resettlement differently. This is what we do.

Our Projects.
We’ve run houses in Greater Manchester for both men and women, providing 3,500 hours of support each year. So far, we’ve helped over 175 people get back on their feet, living independently and in work.
Embassy Village is underway, which will quadruple our capacity in 2024.
Get involved.
Whether you’re an individual wanting to do a sponsored event to help raise cash to support our residents, or a business wanting to find out how to get involved, we want to hear from you!
Donations are always welcome, no matter how big or small, or whether it’s a monthly or one-off.
Regular donations are especially impactful as it means we can plan ahead knowing we’re covered.

The Moulding Foundation
The Moulding Foundation believes that everyone, regardless of their personal circumstances, deserves an education, a safe place to call home, and access to healthcare.
The Moulding Foundations has generously committed capital funds to build it as well as supporting some of the management costs of the build. Without this support Embassy would not be able to realise the vision of the Village.
Not satisfied to be just the funder, the Moulding Foundation team have joined the steering group and have become tangibly involved in our work.
