About this class

This course is particularly suitable for asylum seekers (eligibility criteria applies) as we focus on the processes and steps that people need to take when they receive their ‘refugee status’. There will be a large focus on language needed to navigate benefits/housing etc. Wraparound support will be provided from the advice team at RETAS. The course is intended to prepare asylum seekers for what to expect when they receive their status and minimise some stress.

The above course is open to anyone (subject to residency criteria) – attendees do not have to be a current RETAS client or RETAS learner.

Dates and days to be confirmed.

If interested, contact us by phone/email or in person.
