How we will support you
We know that as someone who is seeking safety in a new country, you might have some needs that haven’t already been mentioned in this local offer.
That’s why we’ll make sure that:
- You have a clothing allowance of up to £220
- You’re supported to learn English
- You have vaccines that you might not have had in your home country
- You can travel to places of worship and specialist food shops, and we’ll help you buy books or equipment, like a prayer mat or religious clothing
- You’re supported to make a claim for asylum, and you get legal support from a solicitor
- You can contact your family, and if you’re not in touch with them we’ll give you the details of an agency who could help you find them
- You’re supported to learn about English laws and cultures
- You’re introduced to the Amity Hub, which is a place where you can meet young people, make friends, have fun, learn, get support and advice, and feel part of the community
