Our goal is to help New Scots (refugees and asylum seekers) settle into their new lives and communities with confidence and dignity. We do this by:
- Providing essential items like furniture, clothing, and toys to help families feel at home.
- Offering Home Visitors to assist with day-to-day needs—whether it’s booking appointments, learning how to use public transport, or simply offering a friendly face.
- Supporting English language development, with volunteers—many of whom have ESOL teaching experience—providing tailored help.
- Organising community-building events where New Scots can practise English and build friendships.
- Coordinating family-friendly activities during school holidays to support integration and wellbeing.
Our work is powered by volunteers, local partnerships, and the generosity of the community. Together, we aim to offer not just shelter, but a true sense of welcome.
