Refugees and Asylum Seekers

People forced to leave their homes and move to other countries because they are afraid of persecution, or because of war, are often marginalised and vulnerable.

Tearfund is providing physical, emotional, legal and spiritual support to uprooted peoples, both in the UK and in developing countries.

We have a number of relief teams overseas bringing practical help and hope to people in refugee camps. We also work through churches and other Christian organisations in the UK, providing support for asylum seekers.
