Community Sponsorship enables your church and local community to directly support a newly resettled refugee family from the moment they arrive in the UK. This new development for refugee resettlement was announced by the UK Government in Summer 2016.
Caritas Salford was the first organisation to meet the government criteria and welcome a Syrian family to the UK. Their pioneering involvement and subsequent support has led to others across the UK replicating the process. Now they have published a comprehensive guide that distils their learning into an easy to follow powerpoint for those who are considering community sponsorship.
