We provide a safe space for refugees and asylum seekers in Swindon. Our Drop-is open Monday to Friday 11am to 2pm. Currently, we see on average 50 to 60 visitors a day and support over 350 refugees and asylum seekers from more than 40 countries each year. We also run English classes, alongside other more recreational activities, such as fitness classes and cooking. We work with some of the most marginalised and misunderstood people in our community. The need is ever-growing, but so are the opportunities to help - and have fun - as well. As a voluntary organisation, our lifeblood is our volunteers. We are fortunate in having some long-standing, loyal people working with us, but we warmly welcome newcomers too. In fact, we actively encourage our visitors to volunteer – and many do, helping with translation, cleaning, welcoming newcomers etc. We are open to new ideas and encourage people to share their talents, be it helping in our Drop-in, assisting with classes or offering help behind the scenes in raising money for us. If you'd like to link in with a local charity with international appeal, we'd love to hear from you! Just call the office on 01793 611 682 to speak to Annie and explore the possibilities.
