Room for Refugees
The Room for Refugees Network helps refugees from the global south to rebuild their lives and contribute to our communities as quickly as possible.

Positive Action in Housing (SCO27577) pioneered the Room for Refugees Programme, the oldest and longest-established refugee hosting programme in the U.K.
Since its inception, the Programme has successfully sheltered over 5,000 refugees and found over 600 placements for Ukrainian refugees.
With hundreds of "referral partners". See the website for how to become a referral partner.
We shelter around refugee families and individuals from many countries, including Palestine, Iran, Syria, Ukraine, Zimbabwe, and Yemen.
We're part of a worldwide movement committed to building a modern-day underground railroad of dedicated people defying governments' indifference to the global refugee crisis by helping men, women, and children risk their lives for a better future.
