Circle of Friends consists of a number of circles that work in various ways to support asylum seekers and refugees. Member Circles choose their own activities, recruit their own members, decide their own spheres of work and raise their own funds. Each Circle offers different types of assistance, from rent assistance, job assistance, education support, rapid response, family reunions, bridging visa support etc.
To join a Circle, contact the relevant convenor or contact Henrietta Wighton to discuss how you could contribute to Circles of Friends.
