Get support for me

The best way to get support is to attend one of our drop-ins. All our drop-ins are a women-only safe space. At our drop-ins we offer refreshments, including a meal, opportunities to meet other women, get help and support from staff, volunteers and some other organisations that attend. Children are always welcome and we have toys for them to play with.

When you attend our drop-in we will explain the different ways that we can work with you.  This could be by offering you help finding a solicitor, making a phone call, interpreting a letter or providing you with someone who can attend an appointment with you.

If you are pregnant or have recently had a baby you can join our support group for women who are pregnant or have a child under one. This is a smaller group where you can get lots of useful advice and support. There are many other ways we can help and support you and as we are connected with lots of other organisations we can help connect you to them too.

We want to help all women be as informed as possible about the things that affect them. Refugee Women Connect runs workshops, activities and classes which will provide you with information on a range of topics. To find out about these please check the reception desk at each drop-in or speak to a staff member or volunteer.

If you need details of when and where our drop-ins run then please contact us.

    We know it is important to have a local service you can rely on. Because of this we are creating a map of refugee womenโ€™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.
