Community sponsorship transforms not only the lives of resettled families but also the communities who welcome them.

"It is 100% worth it. It has led to real lifelong friendships, both with the family and with the sponsorship group." - Lesley Cox, South Wales Community Sponsorship Group

It is wonderful that you are interested in forming a Community Sponsor group to bring a refugee family to your neighbourhood.

Everyone who has embarked on Community Sponsorship has enjoyed the experience. It provides the warmest of welcomes for a refugee family and is the best way to help newcomers to the UK along the path to independence. It is also hugely rewarding for the volunteers in the group, forging new friendships and fostering community spirit.
