Our work with communities

Communities play a huge role in welcoming and supporting New Scots

We work with groups led by people with lived-experience of seeking protection in Scotland, as well as welcome groups.

Our community development team offers free skills workshops to members of refugee-led community organisations.

New Scots Connect is a Scotland-wide network for community groups. Find out how to join and connect.

Groups and communities across Scotland are welcoming and supporting New Scots. Find support near you.

Our advisory group is a huge asset to us and helps guide and inform our work.

The New Scots Refugee Integration Delivery Project offers grants to groups and organisations helping people seeking safety in Scotland.
