Our mission is to welcome asylum seekers and refugees in and around Leicester, and support them to rebuild their lives, develop their skills and feel part of the community.
We offer a range of vital services and wider enrichment opportunities to asylum seekers and refugees: a central Hub with welcome, support services and lunch, ESOL classes as well as football and sewing sessions.
Our services run five days a week, supporting around 150 people each week. Services are delivered by a team of volunteers. Our service users are the lifeblood of the charity and we could not run it without their help. More than half the volunteer team running the drop-in at the Hub are asylum seekers themselves.
Important!
Our small but deeply committed staff team is in need of an experienced LEAD OFFICER as we continue our crucial work of welcoming asylum seekers and refugees in and around Leicester.
