© 2010 East Area Asylum Seekers Support Group  ~  registered charity no. 1101367

Like many charities we rely very largely on the support, help and giving of supporters.

We would be very grateful for any help you can offer - please have a look at what’s appropriate and contact us to discuss the practicalities.

Thank you for all your help.

Food:

We give food parcels - when we have food - to the destitute asylum seekers we support. We give tinned and dried food (see the list of preferences here - we welcome most things but not pork or spam).  We also give toiletries when possible. Can you help?

Clothes:

Our clothes store relies entirely on donations. We’d like clothes and shoes in reasonable and wearable condition. We don’t sell the clothes, we give them to any who need them. We welcome small household items (not furniture or electrical items).  Please ring first.

Volunteering:

We would very much welcome new volunteers - please check the list of roles we would like help with.

Money:

Our running costs are largely funded from grants.  See our Annual Accounts.

We ask for money for the direct benefit of clients. We currently give £10 a week to 57 destitute people. With more funds we could support many more. Most of this comes from individual donors, churches and other groups. The LankellyChase Foundation also make a generous grant.  We also have a small emergency fund which comes from individuals, churches, and the local William Moulton Charity.

Please get in touch if you have any questions.

If you would like to donate regularly please download a standing order form for hardship support and the emergency fund, thank you.
