Immediate relief, lasting Change
ForRefugees is a UK charity (registered in England and Wales number 1168435) dedicated to helping humanitarian aid and targeted support be available to refugees when governments and large NGOs in Europe fail them. Through our on the ground partners, we ensure that refugees – men, women and children in urgent need – can access essential services, saving lives and laying the foundations for long-term recovery.
We raise ongoing funds to support projects that meet immediate needs, including food, clean water and shelter. We further help ensure particularly vulnerable individuals can access vital services including refuge, medical care, and legal support. In addition, we invest in education, community centres, and sports programmes understanding the importance of helping refugees rebuild resilience and begin healing from their trauma ready to start their new lives in a new country.
