Southend’s Refuge Seeker Guests Support Fund
Donations from individuals, community and faith groups, businesses are all welcome.
Closing date: 01 October 2023
Story
The charity Love Southend, in partnership with Southend-on-Sea Borough Council and the Faith and Belief Network, have created an opportunity for financial donations to be given to support our international guests seeking refuge in the UK. Donations will be used: to support the immediate needs of the families and individuals; and to support those who are permanently housed in Southend in their home-making.
Funds will be designated by the Trustees for these specific purposes. Hands on workers with our guests will ensure funds are used appropriately. Currently funds are being used to support Afghan and Ukrainian guests. Any remaining funds will be distributed to other refugee / asylum seeker or similar organisations in Southend.
Donating with Stewardship is really easy and completely secure. If you are a UK taxpayer, please confirm that you would like to reclaim Gift Aid on your donation. This will add 25p to every £1 you give. Thank you!
