02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Refuweegee is a registered charity warmly welcoming forcibly displaced people to Glasgow, and broader Scotland. Our purposes as recorded in our constitution, are to 1. Support the forcibly displaced community arriving in Glasgow and Scotland through the provision of community-built welcome packs, 2. Engage both old and new communities in activities and events and 3. Work with international organisations to raise awareness and understanding of issues faced by the forcibly displaced community. We support people immediately and sustain this help over many years if needed. We support asylum seekers, refugees and anyone in need of help. This intentional act helps build bridges between new and established communities.
