Brighton Voices In Exile is a registered charity reaching out to those seeking asylum, refugees and those with no recourse to public funds within Sussex.

We currently work on a three tier intervention approach; crisis intervention(destitution, deportation), stabilising situations(accommodation, finances), and longer term integration support (volunteering, education & employment).

What People Have Said About The Project:  

“Our lives have been changed forever by those we have met and what we have seen the group achieving”

Two volunteers  

 “It is not the only place where clients can get support but for many is the first port of call and provides a central point where donations can be channelled...It can also provide a useful bridge between those faith communities concerned with the issue and the non-faith sector”

 "As previously stated the core work of BVIE has been positive for our clients….. Also another benefit which the project has had is on the local delivery of services. BVIE has brought together organisations to work in a more co-ordinated manner and highlighting where service providers could improve upon the manner and quality …. This more holistic approach is a very positive benefit"
