BRS is an independent registered charity working to improve the quality of life for refugees and asylum seekers who live, work or study within Barnet and surrounding London boroughs. We work in partnership with local agencies and the greater community to promote the physical, social and mental well-being of our clients. We do this by working to reduce health inequalities, social exclusion and poverty that overwhelm this group of individuals. Nearly 5000 people turned to BRS for advice last year, and we look forward to providing similar guidance in 2013.
Last year I visited the Barnet Refugee Service, and met the trustees, the staff and some of the volunteers and clients. I was moved and impressed by the real difference BRS has made to so many lives.
