Ok, we know – this was ROTW #44 back in October 2018 – but some things are too good to keep quiet about.
The Transition Guide is a website aimed at Refugees who have recently been granted leave to remain in the UK to help them understand what new rights and entitlements they have, and to give advice on how to get them. It focuses on the kind of things that will be a priority during the first 6 months of becoming a refugee.
If you are someone who helps refugees, you’ll also find it useful, as you can print off pages to give to people, or send links to peole who call you up asking for advice. It gives basic information on a number of important subjects, and links to more detailed information if that’s needed.
