Details

Faithful Welcome is a partnership project between Faith in Community Scotland and Scottish Faiths Action for Refugees. It invites people from Scotland’s rich diversity of faith traditions to be part of creating a more welcoming and inclusive society for newcomers and play an integral role in supporting two-way integration.

Small grants are available for local action around the following themes:

• Offering hospitality (e.g. costs of community meals and social events bringing people together)
• Easing integration (e.g. costs of interpreting services; running language classes)
• Enabling participation (e.g. skill-sharing activities such as gardening, sewing, cooking; providing costs of bus passes for travel)
