Story

Thank you for visiting my page. I am fundraising for a wonderful local charity that supports refugees and asylum seekers via counselling and psychotherapy, mentoring, specialist services for women and young people, advice and advocacy support, and training - and has continued to do so throughout the pandemic. Refugee Resource is unique in being the only dedicated refugee therapy service in Oxfordshire, offering long-term, tailored support to promote peoples mental health and well-being. This has been more crucial than ever during the coronavirus pandemic. These are resilient people, many of whom have experienced unimaginable trauma and have seen major disruptions in their life. Being forced to flee everything they knew (country, language, culture and often their entire family) to seek safety, many have faced the lockdown far away from loved ones. Any donation - however small - will mean a huge amount to me, and to Refugee Resource. Please consider supporting and sharing their work.
