We continued hostin8 drop-in sessions and coffee mornings that helped refugees and asylum seekers
build social networks and create friendships. Our intergenerational mentorship initiatives also helped
keep our elderly beneficiaries active and socially connected.

This programme supported unemployed young refugees to access training and employment
opportunities. Through our guidance, several young refugees gained placements in educational
institutions or volunteer roles with other organizations. This support continued to help refugees
pursue their educational and career goals.
Health & Wellbein8 Programme
We kept providing essential health and wellbeing services, including soft physical exercise sessions
for women, children, and young adults. Additionally, we organized workshops to raise awareness
