Action Hosting Open Evening
Event Information
Description
Action Hosting is a project delivered by the award-winning charity Action Foundation. This project matches volunteers offering a spare bedroom in their home with a destitute asylum seeker to provide short-term accommodation placements. To date, we have provided over 2,500 nights of accommodation to 10 vulnerable asylum seekers in the homes' of volunteer hosts, but we want to do more!
We are looking for more volunteer hosts to join this project. We provide full training and ongoing support to all our volunteers and our thorough matching process means that placements are a positive experience for both hosts
and guests.
“Hosting has given us a great deal of satisfaction and fulfilment, the feeling that you are doing your bit but also gaining so much. After some time it is just like having a family member or friend staying” (Andy Lie, Action Hosting Volunteer)
If you are interested in becoming a host or simply want to find out more, come along to our Open Evening!
There will be the opportunity to meet the Action Hosting team, hear from a current volunteer host or beneficiariy and ask any questions you may have.
