Be a Friend

Abigail Housing needs friends like you. Friends of Abigail is a new strategy initiated to create awareness of the housing challenges destitute asylum seekers and refugees face. Friends can get involved in helping those in need in number of ways.

Friends of Abigail might spread the word about the housing needs of destitute asylum seekers and refugees. They might fundraise or engage their local church. They might volunteer, or even come up with their own ideas on how to be involved.

The over 2000 destitute asylum seekers and refugees in Leeds need friendship. Having fled persecution abroad, they often end up living in extreme poverty in the UK. Sometimes they have to live on the streets, and they are often dependent on charity in order to meet their basic needs. By being a Friend of Abigail’s you can provide support to the destitute, create awareness in your community, and share your friendship.
