Imagine what it’s like to flee your home in fear. To leave everything you own, everything you know and everyone you care about. To arrive in a new country with nothing but your life. You’ve survived. But how will you eat tonight? Where will you sleep? And how can you build a new life? How will you live? Refugee Action is there to help people find the answers. We help people who’ve survived some of the world’s worst regimes to live again. We help people find the basic support everyone deserves if they’re to live with dignity. The chance to build the safest, happiest and most productive life they can, so they can live. And where we encounter policies, practices or attitudes that won’t allow this chance, we challenge. We believe everyone who’s fled their home to survive deserves a chance to live again. If you do too, support us today. Our BeliefsWe believe in human rights. We believe in fairness and equality. We believe that no one seeking asylum in the UK should be left destitute.Together, we can create a society where people escaping armed conflict, torture and persecution are welcomed, supported and given the opportunity to build their own future.Our Essential PurposeWe work with refugees to build new lives. We are there throughout the difficult and complex asylum journey. By empowering people through information and advice we help them to make the right decisions about their future. And we won’t stop until there is an asylum system which treats everyone fairly, respects people’s human rights and leaves no one destitute.Who Do We Support?The people we support have challenged injustice, stood up to oppression and courageously left their homes behind to escape violence and even death. They are the heroes of human rights. And they deserve to be treated fairly, with dignity and respect.
