  • how you can help people seeking protection to settle into your community

Who is it for?

This in-person session is a perfect introduction for people who are new to supporting people seeking sanctuary in their local communities, in a voluntary or paid capacity, as well as an excellent refresher for those who have worked in the sector for a while. FREE for organisations delivering in the Belfast City Council area.

Recent feedback:

Conversations like this are so important in what feels like a minefield of constant change while navigating through a complex political landscape, very grateful for this and feeling more equipped to help the people I support.

I was aware of some of the basics of the asylum system but I have learnt lots more really useful information on this course.

Really informative, clearly and empathetically delivered within a safe space to ask questions and seek clarity. Really appreciate!
