Refugee Roots welcomes all, helping those in need find friendship and a place to call home

Refugee Roots is a Christian charity that helps asylum seekers and refugees build relationships and navigate the complexities of building a new life in the UK.

We are fundraising during the 12 days of Christmas to provide wellbeing and support activities for asylum seekers and refugees.
