The Borderlands Charity

Borderlands is a Christian charity based in Bristol that exists to work with refugees, asylum seekers and other vulnerable migrants to help them from exclusion to belonging. 

  • We support refugees, asylum seekers and those with insecure immigration status to alleviate poverty and hardship.
     
  • We create a community of welcome where we support people on their way of securing ‘leave to remain’ and enhance social inclusion and well-being.
     
  • We raise awareness of the needs and experiences of our members among the wider community.
     
  • We work with people regardless of race, disability, sex, age, religious belief or sexual orientation. We have a vision for a world where refugees and asylum seekers can seek sanctuary and justice, can make full use of their talents and abilities, feel valued for their contributions, and build worthwhile lives.
