#RethinkingRefugee

Negative stereotypes and broken systems in the UK mean that 75% of refugees and migrants have no opportunities beyond low-paid, entry-level employment. ACH aims to redefine, recentre and rebuild this process to end the cycle of poverty.

Our vision is to empower refugees and migrants who reside in the UK to lead self-sufficient and ambitious lives. We believe that increased access to support, training and education creates spaces and opportunities for people to thrive.

Our #RethinkingRefugee campaign channels this vision and aims to re-evaluate and reshape the ways refugees are seen, portrayed and integrated.

Join us in supporting refugees and migrants to build a better, brighter future.
