Borderlands

We are a charity based in Bristol that exists to work with refugees, asylum seekers and other vulnerable migrants to help them from exclusion to belonging. We have a vision for a world where refugees and asylum seekers can seek sanctuary and justice, can make full use of their talents and abilities, feel valued for their contributions, and build worthwhile lives. We want to help refugees, asylum seekers and those with insecure immigration from exclusion to belonging. Our mission is to serve the disadvantaged and marginalised, focusing on asylum seekers, refugees and those with insecure immigration status, primarily in the wider Bristol area, by: enhancing their social inclusion and well-being, supporting those in poverty, and raising awareness of their needs and experiences among the wider community. We work with people regardless of race, disability, sex, age, religious belief or sexual orientation. We create a welcoming community where we support people on their way of securing 'leave to remain' and enhance social inclusion and well-being.
