Refugee resettlement

In September 2015, the Government committed to bringing 20,000 vulnerable Syrian refugees into the UK by 2020 under the Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme.

The scheme is an international collaboration between the UNHCR, the Home Office, IOM, local authorities and organisations like Migrant Help.

Migrant Help currently provides this service in East Kent.

We support the individuals and families as they go through the process of settling down in their new communities. We support them access services such as education, healthcare, employment support and other local services.

We facilitate referrals to specialist services to help those who struggle with the traumatic experiences they faced before coming to this country.

Our dedicated advisers work closely with other agencies, both statutory and voluntary, as well as local community groups, to give our clients the best start in their new life in the UK.

 

"We were very pleased with the past year and wish that the coming years will be as good as this one. You all were the reason behind our happiness. We wholeheartedly thank the UK government and the British people for their help and for hosting us in their country." Mahmoud and family

  • Are you a local authority welcoming refugees? Contact us and we will support resettlement in your area or provide socially aware interpreting services.
  • Help new families settling in the UK - donate to our welfare fund.
