Destitute asylum seekers

Whilst society deals with the fall out from the UK’s financial problems (rising unemployment, house repossessions, restricted credit), destitute asylum seekers suffer more than most. When charitable giving reduces, they have less food to eat; fewer places to sleep. The Trustees are maintaining their programme of giving across the country to charities protecting asylum seekers from destitution.

Helping people to be heard

In our speeding-up society it is difficult to make your voice heard. That is particularly true for many of those who have a mental health problem, who can feel side-lined and disenfranchised. We hope through our funded programmes to help people be heard.
