The journey you have as refugee, asylum seeker or forced migrant can be very difficult and can impact how you live on a day to day basis. Some of your feelings and thoughts might be difficult to manage. We can help you manage those feelings and thoughts. We work with a wide range of issues, including trauma, loss, self-harm, suicide, anxiety, isolation and sleep problems.

Our refugee service provides confidential support in Croydon to refugees, asylum seekers and forced migrants who are aged between 11 - 25. 

Clients can request an interpreter.
