We know it is important to have a local service you can rely on. Because of this we are creating a map of refugee women’s services and groups across the UK. If you would like to tell others about a great service or group then please get in touch so that we can add them to our map. If you are a woman seeking asylum or with leave to remain and cannot find a local service then please get in touch and we will try to help you find one.
