Charles Worth
Each year, thousands of people arrive in the UK seeking asylum from war, famine and persecution, or as survivors of modern slavery or trafficking. Having experienced
multiple and complex trauma, these people are often in need of therapeutic
support to enable them to heal and start to build new lives.
Refugee Resource provides psychological, social and practical support for refugees, asylum seekers and vulnerable migrants to help them heal from trauma, bereavement and suffering, and to become valued members of our diverse community. (From their Website)
The staff team has expertise in female genital mutilation (FGM), domestic violence and modern slavery, as well as complex trauma. This expertise is shared among other organisations working with this group, by providing training on working with clients suffering complex emotional and mental health issues, and supervision services, to enable these agencies to work more compassionately, safely and effectively.
Unlike other agencies, RR does not put a time-limit on their services – they are there for people until they feel ready to move forward to build new lives in the UK.
Refugee Resource works closely with its bigger sister organisation in Oxford, Asylum Welcome. A number of Oxford Friends have worked with RR clients as volunteer mentors.
