About us
Who we are
Borderlands is a charity that works with asylum
seekers and refugees. Through various projects,
we support disadvantaged and excluded people to
improve their lives and their personal situations.
Our aim is to tackle destitution and isolation,
enable participation in the community and improve
wellbeing.
Our core projects include a Drop-In, where English classes, signposting, destitution funding and food provisions are available; a Mentoring Project; a Housing Project and a Legal Fund.
“The thing that will help you most, there is a charity called Borderlands. It is a place where you ought to visit and I am sure you will appreciate it. The special thing with this place is that you will feel like you are home…They teach English and how to integrate to British system. Whatever problem you have, once you tell them they will try to find a way or advise you what to do to sort it out.”Refugee from Burundi
