Training Event for Voluntary Services

This training event is for anyone working in Voluntary Services across all sectors of the ICS who would like to understand more about how volunteering can support migrant integration in our communities.

There are two parts to this training and participants should be able to commit to attending both days.  The link below is for day 1 on 9th June. Arrangements to join day 2 on the 16th June will be shared later.

The training will be led by Aleksandra Bardon, Refugee Health and Wellbeing Commissioner at LCC who brings a wealth of expertise and insight to challenge our perspectives.

After these sessions you will be able to:

• Identify issues faced by refugees and asylum seekers when volunteering and recognise the importance of boundaries

• Confidently recruit volunteers of refugee and asylum-seeking backgrounds

• Recognise the rights of refugees and asylum seekers living in the UK

• Describe the different stages of the asylum and refugee resettlement processes
