Our Services
At MRSN, we help asylum seekers and refugees get the basic support they need to live with dignity. We strive to help them build safe, happy and productive lives in the UK. Our aims are:
To support refugees to access services and opportunities on an equal basis, in order to prevent all forms of poverty and allow individuals to fulfil their potential.
To educate refugees and asylum seekers on their rights and responsibilities as active citizens, and contribute to positive media representation of refugees.
To empower refugees to establish strong community organisations and provide platforms for them to represent the needs and aspirations of their communities.
