What We Do

Practical Support: We offer practical support for refugees and asylum seekers through ESOL classes, homework clubs and youth groups.

Refugee Community Organisation Support: We develop and support community leaders through training, personal development, mentoring and one to one appointments.

Advocacy: We advocate for the needs and aspirations of refugee communities through billingual advocacy (by appointment only) and working collaboratively with other organisations to provide extra services for refugees and asylum seekers.

Community Social Space: We provide a community centre that is a safe space where refugees can meet and find mutual support.

Refugee Week: We celebrate refugees by annually hosting a celebration week in partnership with agencies across Leeds.
