Advice Service

Our Advice Service supports people seeking asylum to overcome complex housing, income and immigration problems.

  • Our specialist caseworkers use their expert knowledge of the asylum system to prevent and resolve homelessness and destitution.
  • We work to empower people seeking asylum with the knowledge they need to navigate the asylum system, access their rights, take control of their legal situation and make informed choices about their options.
  • We work collaboratively with local authorities, housing providers, social services, schools, mental health services and other partners to ensure asylum seekers have wrap-around support to sustainably overcome complex problems.
  • We make referrals to our Complex Needs Project for those who require additional, specialist casework support.

“They explain things clearly, give accurate information and I feel they genuinely want to help. It gives me confidence when making decisions.”
