At Asylum Welcome, we believe in working with people, not simply for them.
Our Local Action Group reflects our commitment to co-production: supporting people with lived experience of the asylum system to identify the issues that matter to them and lead change.
For people in “asylum hotels”, living on just £9.95 a week, the cost of public transport can be a major barrier. The group successfully campaigned for a scheme providing free bus passes to hundreds of people seeking asylum in Oxford.
Asylum Welcome is celebrating its 30th birthday in September 2026.
