Refugee children facing exclusion
Some young people grow up in dangerous countries where they are in danger or being hurt in wars, or they live in dirty slums, or they are attacked because of their religion. We help young refugees who have arrived in England find a safe place to live; we help them to learn English; and we help them make friends so that they can build a new life.
