In the charity's own words

We support refugees and their dependents, or those seeking asylum, in Kent, by the relief of financial hardship, befriending, assisting with English language learning, and generally helping them to adapt within a new community. We also aim to advance the education of the public about the rights and needs of refugees and asylum seekers through outreach work.
