Objectives

Voices in Exile works with adult refugees, asylum seekers and migrants with no recourse to public funds in Sussex. We offer both practical and legal support to those who would otherwise be unable to access justice. We work with both individuals and families, including refugee families resettled in the UK from Syria and Afghanistan.

Activities

  • We offer practical and legal support including generalist advice and specialist immigration casework (up to OISC Level 2) for those who would otherwise be unable to access justice
  • We offer practical support including a weekly food and toiletries bank for those who are destitute
  • Our groups provide a space for developing mutual support networks for members and are very successful at reducing social isolation through improving social networks and connections to the city. They build community, and members develop their own potential through a programme of learning and creative activities.
  • We advocate for, accompany and enable people to access services
  • We seek to encourage people to find positive ways to address their own needs, build skills and resilience, and work towards integration in the UK through an active programme of volunteering.
