Unfold
Mentors for Refugees will empower women to overcome challenging circumstances and help them find ways to connect and integrate with their local community.
Mentors will support women to make social connections with the local community and groups, refer and signpost them to other organisations providing more specialist support if needed. Mentors will provide a safe space to discuss the challenges women face. Through encouragement and active listening, mentors will support their mentees’ mental wellbeing.
By becoming a mentor with Unfold you will be supporting one of the most vulnerable groups in our communities. We aim to break the barriers that keep refugee women excluded from mainstream services.
