Hosts are particularly needed in larger asylum dispersal towns and cities.

Hope at Home (UK Wide)

Hope at Home is a UK-wide hosting scheme for survivors. Without this stable home, many survivors would be destitute, extremely vulnerable and potentially re-trafficked.We work in partnership with support agencies who support our guest, whilst we train, encourage and support our hosts. If you have a spare room and a BIG heart, please get in touch. Please Note:  Due to the needs of our guests, we need hosts in locations that have easy access to public transport and services.  If you live in a remote location, we cannot guarantee that we would be able to find a suitable guest to match with you.
