We still have a limited number of spaces available on the first session of our free Asylum Seeker Awareness in Health & Social Care, which takes place this Friday, 26th July.

The session will take place between 10am and 1pm.


If you can’t make it on Friday, do not fear. We have another session coming up on Friday 16th August (also from 10am to 1pm).


The free, fully-funded training, a collaboration between Community CVS and Spring North which has been developed to benefit Health & Social Care and VCFSE organisations, aims to raise awareness of the challenges and barriers Asylum Seeker face within health and social care settings.

First run in the spring of this year, the training received an average feedback score of 9.3 out of ten, and is a practical session covering the following: –

  • Recognising the challenges faced by Asylum Seekers when accessing services;
  • Creating awareness of potential discrimination faced by Asylum Seekers; and
  • Recommendations to improve access to services in medical, community & social care settings.
