In this project funded by the Hilden Trust we deliver peer-assisted sessions for refugees & asylum seekers to facilitate access to learning and volunteering opportunities. Our Expert by Experience volunteers help deliver these sessions, and share their experiences.

Refugees and asylum seekers are frequently socially isolated, unsure of how to access training and volunteering opportunities and develop their employability.  Sessions build on LEYH to help participants access appropriate training opportunities, and provide direct access to volunteering opportunities offered by local agencies present at our sessions.
