  • Scottish Refugee Council

    About:

    “We are an independent charity dedicated to supporting people in need of refugee protection.

    The people we work with have fled horrific situations around the world and come from countries where conflict is rife and human rights abuses common.

    When people arrive in Scotland, a new journey begins. The UK’s asylum system is tough and takes its toll on individuals and families. Settling into a foreign country and a whole new system can be disorientating and challenging.

    WE ARE HERE FOR PEOPLE AT A DIFFICULT TIME IN THEIR LIVES”
