Host Nation - Greater Manchester - Meeting a Friend
Host Nation is a charity that supports refugees and asylum seekers in the UK by connecting them with volunteer befrienders.
We help find local friends for refugees and asylum seekers.
• It's a great way to find out about life here in the UK, to practise your English and to explore new places.
• We will introduce you to one another. You then meet face to face for outings to places like local cafes, parks, markets or museums.
• You both start with a promise to meet regularly for three months. Many of our friendships go so well that they continue for years!
How to access:
Normally you will need to be referred to us, but a few people can self refer.
