Restore — connecting community support with pathways towards work and participation.

Restore is a project of Birmingham Churches Together supporting refugees and people seeking sanctuary. Sanctuary’s community-development interest aligns particularly with employability, integration and practical pathways towards economic participation.

The organisation

Restore works with refugees and asylum seekers in Birmingham and surrounding areas through befriending, social activities, mentoring, training and employability-related support.

Sanctuary's contribution and focus

  • Community-development thinking
  • Employability pathway development
  • Connecting skills, work-readiness and economic participation
  • Entrepreneurship as an additional pathway where appropriate
  • Structure that can help support move beyond short-term intervention

Why it matters

For Sanctuary, employability is not only CV preparation. The objective is a clearer pathway from support to skills, work, enterprise and longer-term participation.
