News and Events

In a world marked by displacement, the theme of this year’s World Refugee week, “Finding Freedom” – focusing on family – highlights the resilience, strength, and unity that define the refugee experience. We aim to shed light on the transformative power of familial and chosen bonds in adversity, emphasising their crucial role in providing solace, support, and belonging. The resilience of families torn apart by conflict or persecution inspires communities to come together in solidarity.

Our TASC Team assists refugees with legal proceedings, striving for justice. To all seeking safety in our region, we say welcome and hope you find hope and inclusion in our community.
