I’m writing to let you know about some upcoming free training co-produced and co-delivered with PAFRAS clients.
The sessions are aimed at frontline staff working within key public services and other relevant frontline services.
We hope the session will equip attendees with practical tools to better support people seeking asylum and to understand and challenge the Hostile Environment.

✨ Some feedback from previous sessions ✨
💬 “This was an invaluable piece of training and will be incredibly helpful for anyone attending in the future. I will be encouraging colleagues from different teams to join as I think it will improve practice immeasurably.”
💬 “This training has provided me with a lot of information about the different challenges facing young refugees in the UK as well as anyone entering the asylum system. It included first-person experiences which are invaluable, and plenty of detailed information which we can read through in more time and refer to later. There were also plenty of links to other organisation pages and resources which will also be a great resource. The trainers were really knowledgeable, approachable and made the discussions really interesting and encouraged responses. It was also a great chance to meet other people who work in this area to share ideas with contact details. I will be able to use the information to directly support young people and families in the hostile environment and to share it with colleagues to enable them to support clients as well.”
