Recently, refugees from locations such as Afghanistan, Hong Kong, and Ukraine, have been welcomed across the UK – individuals forced to leave their home countries, often in dangerous and traumatic circumstances, in search of safety and security.
For many new arrivals into the UK, their journey is far from over. Faced with an unfamiliar culture, system, and for many, language, how to integrate, find work, and settle in the UK is an important next step. It is, therefore, key that support is made available to make this process as smooth as possible.
This is a main finding from the evaluation of the Wellbeing and Work for Refugee Integration (WW4RI) project, published in September with funding from The Bell Foundation.
