Drop-in Centre

We aim to raise the educational status of refugee women and asylum seekers - giving them more choices, opportunities to gain employment and improved economic prospects. We want to ensure that women have access to relevant information on issues concerned with welfare rights, health, education, and other appropriate issues. The Drop-In Centre is open again from September 14th, 2021, at a new venue, the Easton Family Centre. The centre provides support for members and the community through various services including welfare calls. The drop-in is held every Tuesday during term time from 10:00 am to 2:30 pm. Services offered include a free crèche for up to 10 pre-school children, lunch cooked by members, free English classes, one-to-one reading practice, information and advocacy, mental well-being support, various workshops and activities including Zumba, and community workers who can speak Somali, Arabic, and Chinese. Additionally, there is a reading coordinator available to accompany anyone who would like to visit the Junction 3 Library.
