Thank you for your interest in talking to us about your experiences as an asylum seeker/ refugee in the UK. We’re really keen to hear from you about how things have been leading up to and during the asylum process, as well as your hopes for the future.
The aim of this website is to get a clearer picture of what life is really like as an asylum seeker/ refugee in the UK, and to put a human face and voice to issues often spoken about in the press and in government. This project will raise awareness and is also trying to secure a financial grant for grassroots organisations supporting the asylum seeking and refugee community in London.
Our session together will be more like a conversation than an interview. If you want to participate, you can end the interview at any time, and what you choose to share with us is entirely up to you, and what feels most comfortable. You also maintain the right to withdraw your content at any time, should you wish to do so.
If you would like, we also have a photographer who can take your portrait to share online alongside your story, but this is completely optional and up to you. Depending on your preference, we can also take pictures which do not show your face if you would like to remain anonymous.
