At Learn for Life Enterprise we are committed to supporting refugees. #refugeeswelcomehere

Due to the current humanitarian crises, more and more asylum seekers are arriving at Learn for Life on a daily basis. This is in addition to our usual classes and projects, where funding has already been significantly reduced because of the cuts. We need help with teaching English, assisting in classes, IT, general talking/making people feel welcome, fundraising, reception/admin, helping with things like housing, form filling, accessing benefits and legal advice.
