    Situation

    London refugee unemployment is estimated in 70%. Having fled their own country because of war, persecution and violence, despite being highly skilled, they often lack the networks, connections, UK qualifications to gain work experience and begin employment. What they do have is hope, aspirations and a massive will to succeed. They simply need the opportunity to succeed.

    Solution

    We provide employment to refugees who are struggling to find work, and volunteering work experience to asylum seekers which are not yet allowed to work. We also support them with, training, mentoring, networks and entrepreneurship opportunities to independently sustain themselves and progress. Being employed and part of our community, in a safe and supportive working environment has a positive impact on their confidence, self-esteem and well-being. How? Working at our market stalls.
