WHO ARE WE?
Ealing Refugee Forum was established in 1996 as the representative
body for refugee community organisations with clients
in the London Borough of Ealing.
WHY
ARE WE HERE?
We believe that
- Refugees
should control their own destinies
- What unites
our communities is more important than what divides
us
- Working
together in the Forum is a practical expression of that
common interest and strengthens all our communities.
- Ealing Refugee
Forum therefore exists to strengthen refugee communities
in the borough and represent their joint interests.

a voice for refugee organisations in the London Borough

We seek funding
from a wide variety of sources to assist refugee organisations
