Our Education Service helps asylum seekers and refugees to begin or continue their education, get existing qualifications recognised in the UK, and access English language classes. We also assist parents who need help in supporting their children in school.
Our Employment Service offers advice and support for refugees seeking employment or work experience opportunities. We can also offer advice to asylum seekers who are looking for voluntary work while they await status.
“Whatever I am today it’s because of Asylum Welcome. They helped me to find voluntary work, developed my language skills, and prepared my CV. They developed my confidence and awareness about society.”
“Asylum Welcome has been very supportive of me and is like a family to me. I am very grateful to everyone at Asylum Welcome.”
