Our area is defined by the diversity of its landscape; it is rural, urban and suburban. We are close to three protected estuaries, salt marsh habitats and thirteen major beaches. Emmaus is located ten minutes by car north of Dublin Airport on the N1/132 and two minutes from exit 4 of the M1 with fast access to Dublin Port, rail, and Dublin city centre.

Thought for the Day

"I used to think I was poor. Then they told me I wasn’t poor, I was needy. Then they told me it was self-defeating to think of myself as needy. I was deprived. (Oh not deprived but rather underprivileged) Then they told me that underprivileged was overused. I was disadvantaged. I still don’t have a dime. But I have a great vocabulary." – Jules Feiffer

About the Understanding Personality Types Programme
Emmaus Centre’s location is ideal and accessible for participants travelling from different parts of Ireland but also close to the airport for overseas participants with good parking. All evaluation forms from my training events have all responded very positively to the Emmaus Centre in their feedback. I would strongly recommend the Emmaus Centre as a venue for training / room hire.
