About our Charity
Refugee Resource relieves distress, improves well-being and facilitates the integration of refugees, asylum seekers and vulnerable migrants in Oxfordshire, through provision of psychological, social and practical support. We provide counselling and psychotherapy, mentoring, specialist services for men and women and advice and advocacy.
Our specialist core services of counselling and mentoring are vital in supporting refugees, asylum seekers and vulnerable migrants to integrate and thrive in the community in Oxfordshire.
These services address the unique challenges faced by individuals who have experienced trauma, displacement and isolation. Through tailored counselling we can provide emotional support, and mental health care. While our mentoring programmes foster skill development, confidence and community connections.
