Asylum Seekers Unit


We provide advice, support and accommodation for:

  • people who have applied to the Home Office for asylum;
  • people who have chosen to remain in Newcastle after receiving the right to remain in the UK.

We were established in December 1999 and work with other service providers in Newcastle to make sure that asylum seekers and refugees are not isolated and disadvantaged during their time here.
