Volunteers desperately needed in West Yorkshire

Several refugees have just arrived at another hotel in West Yorkshire and we are in urgent need of volunteers to support them.

If you live near Leeds or Wakefield and have a few hours to spare per week, please email annie@care4calais.org

Most of the refugees have recently arrived in the UK and are still trying to settle in a strange new environment with people they have never met before. More than anything, our volunteers are here to provide a helping hand and a friendly face to make them feel welcome here.

But we do far more than that. Every week our volunteers collect donations, set up distributions near the refugees, help them contact lawyers and book medical appointments, assist with translations, direct them to online resources where they can learn English, and much more.

If you can help in Leeds or Wakefield, please don’t hesitate to email annie@care4calais.org. Thank you very much.
