After Feker joined ACH as a resident, he began receiving Employability support. We mapped out a plan: strengthen his English, gain qualifications, get a job, build a pathway to independence.

Today, Feker has completed it all and has started his own painting business.

We caught up with our MarComms intern in #Birmingham to chat about her journey with us.

Fun fact: we deliberately made her first day our all-staff away day so she could meet the team from all our offices. Daunting? Maybe. But it was certainly unforgettable! Read more - ach.org.uk/news/my-firs...

Proud to be one of the many organisations signing this letter. We need to be in the conversation. What's needed isn't more barriers, but more integration support.
We've coordinated an open letter to the Home Secretary, signed by over 100 refugee, migrant, and racial equality orgs urgently calling for a meeting.

We're urging the govt. to meaningfully engage with migrant communities & orgs like ours that represent them.

While the White Paper’s support for community cohesion is welcome, proposals like extending settlement waits to 10 years risk holding people back rather than helping them thrive. What's needed isn't more barriers, but more funded, accessible ESOL and integration support. ach.org.uk/news-and-fea...
