7 Weeks to Go 📢
On 28th July, Eve & Jake will be walking 5 marathons in 5 days!
All to raise £12,000 to recover the costs that ASSIST fronted to repatriate Dr Pious Nyandoro to his home in Zimbabwe. Their 130 miles will cover the funds of laying Pious to rest, nearly 1 year after his passing. (#1⬇)
This #RefugeeWeek, we're celebrating the courage of everyone seeking sanctuary 🧡
At ASSIST, we believe everyone deserves the freedom to live in safety, with the dignity to rebuild their lives.
Join us in the face of unprecedented hostility. Choose compassion, show solidarity, and have #Courage. 🫱🏻🫲🏽
Happy #VolunteersWeek 2026! 🎉
More than 130 volunteers help power the work of ASSIST. It's vital to recognise and celebrate the volunteers who give their time and compassion to support and stand alongside people seeking sanctuary.
To every volunteer, past and present, thank you 🙏🏼
