Positive Action in Housing - Room for Refugees
Room for Refugees is a discreet and confidential hosting network providing safe matching of refugees and asylum seekers with households across the UK.
The hosting process gives an invaluable opportunity for refugee support agencies to work on cases and stabilise clients so that they are able to re-access public funds or even resolve their case so that the right to live in the UK is granted to them.
We also work with social workers from local authorities seeking loving homes for Unaccompanied Asylum Seeker Children.
Our online system – REFER – lets caseworkers from refugee and migrant support organisations quickly find suitable hosts for their clients. For more information about this process, please view our website.
How to access:
Apply for an online caseworker account using the link at the bottom of the page - https://www.roomforrefugees.com/caseworker-account
Once the account is approved, usually within a day or so, read all the guidance and make your first referral. (For especially urgent vulnerable cases, email home@positiveactionh.org first to say you need an account quickly). We will then assess the referral and search for suitable hosts.
