SUMMARY:An Introduction to LASSN and The Asylum Journey
DESCRIPTION:Introductory training for new LASSN volunteers\n\nThis session is for all new LASSN volunteers. Find out more information about volunteering for LASSN here. \nIntroduction to LASSN \nFind our more about Leeds Asylum Seekers Support Network – who we are\, what we do\, how we work. We’ll discuss the role of a volunteer and how volunteers are supported by LASSN. \nThe Asylum Journey \nWhether you know nothing about the UK asylum system\, or whether you’ve been through it yourself\, this is a chance to look at the asylum journey. \nThis session will explore some of the reasons that people come here seeking safety and the varied journeys they take to get to the UK. We’ll look at the process of claiming asylum and gaining refugee status in the UK. \nMany people who come here seeking safety face lots of barriers\, uncertainty and a long wait. We’re not expecting you to become experts in immigration law(!) but we’ll give an overview of how the system is supposed to work\, as well as some of the hardships it can cause. We’ll also help you understand some of the jargon and acronyms that might come up in coversation with your befriendee/learner/guest – who are G4S? Why do people go to Croyden? When can you make a fresh claim? \n\nVenue Phone: 0113 373 1759 \nVenue Email: jo@lassn.org.uk \n
