Feeling like you are not wanted can be a huge burden.

People seeking asylum can face misconceptions about who they are and why they have come to the UK. Many have lived through unimaginable experiences and are simply seeking safety, peace and the chance to build a future for themselves and their families.

We can all help make people feel welcome in our communities — showing through our words and actions that people seeking safety are valued and belong here.

Asylum Welcome is celebrating its 30th birthday in September 2026.

Help us continue.
