Recipient Org: Description Our vision is for our refugees, asylum seekers and vulnerable migrants to feel valued, included in society, and inspired to contribute to their communities. It is our mission to empower them to: ? Acquire skills and knowledge; ? Find out about and access services; ? Gain volunteer experience to build their skills.

On average we support 120 clients a week and the Rainbow Club alone works with 78 children all from refugee and asylum seeker backgrounds. Our Values ? Empowerment: build confidence and help people to help themselves. ? Protection: uphold refugees? rights. ? Equality: celebrate differences, treat everyone equitably, and uphold human rights. ?
