UnLtd, the charity for social entrepreneurs, has announced a new £100,000 fund to tackle the emerging challenges faced by local authorities, churches, mosques and charities as the UK agrees to take in 20,000 displaced people fleeing conflict.
UnLtd is offering one to one support and up to £5,000 cash to UK based social entrepreneurs or refugees with asylum status or humanitarian protection status, who wish to establish a venture, or develop a new service at their existing venture, to meet the long-term needs of refugees and asylum seekers in the UK.
This can include organising and managing accommodation for those who need it; whether in private homes or unused spaces, collecting, restore and distribute clothing and furniture, interpretation and English language learning opportunities and organising meaningful voluntary experiences that can help integrate people etc.
