Our charity is set up to support ethnic minority communities, particularly new migrants, to overcome challenges around digital access, understanding UK systems, and immigration processes. We aim to reduce isolation, build confidence, and help people become more independent and active in their communities. We do this by providing regular support sessions in a warm, safe, and welcoming space where people feel comfortable asking for help. Our sessions focus on digital skills, accessing services, and guidance on immigration matters. We also offer one-to-one support for more complex needs, such as visa applications or job searching. Through this approach, we empower individuals with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to improve their lives and fully participate in society.

Objectives: The organisations purposes are: The advancement of citizenship for people who have migrated to Scotland and are living in Perth and Kinross, through information sharing, signposting and peer support so citizens understand unfamiliar social, legal and healthcare processes in the United Kingdom The promotion of religious and racial harmony through the delivery of a series of cultural and religious events which celebrates differences in race and belief systems in Perth and Kinross. Promotion of equality and diversity across Perth and Kinross
