The Haven Last updated 06/12/24

Primary Healthcare

The Haven is a specialist primary healthcare service for asylum seekers and refugees who are new to Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire. Our team of staff consists of a GP and nurses who will assess and meet the initial health needs of asylum seekers and new refugees. We also help people to access health services and other services they need.


The Haven can offer:

Help for people to register with a local GP practice

Information about how to use the NHS

Comprehensive and holistic health assessments

Medical management of current health problems

Confidential interpreting during consultations

Vaccinations and screening for transmittable diseases


We regularly work with people who have experienced traumatic events. We have pathways and can sign-post to other helpful services such as counselling and refugee support organisations. Our appointments are long enough to give us time to respond to complex needs. We are able to work with people over several appointments according to their individual needs before discharging them to the care of a GP practice.
