Services

Our drop-in centre offers:

• a safe-space – our clients have suffered the indignity of passing through a variety of official bodies and therefore it is important that GARAS feels an easy place to come to
• information, advocacy and advice on health, benefits, immigration, education, careers etc
• access to other services
• food, bedding and household items for urgent needs
• trauma counselling – many clients have experienced trauma, bereavement, abuse in various ways and require help from our psychotherapists

Opening times:

GARAS is open for drop in:

Monday:          10am – 2pm
Wednesday:     10am – 2pm
