Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. Please celebrate with us by supporting our chosen charity. Art Refuge UK is a small and robust charity, applying its expertise in art therapy, working with people who have been displaced, whether the cause is armed conflict, trafficking, natural disaster, famine, or political or religious
persecution. Rooted in the experience of visual art making and art therapy, our programmes offer crucial opportunities to make art, reflect, share and develop safe art making practice.

Art Refuge UK is equipped to respond appropriately through art and art therapy in a range of circumstances, informed by decades of collective experience in trauma work, psychosocial approaches, transiting populations and collaborative programmes.

Supported by a strong team of trustees to provide carefully assembled needs-led programmes with experienced artists and art therapists, they are able to establish and maintain meaningful connections with local organisations to really listen to what and where the needs are.

More recently their art therapists have been planning and running the new project in the Calais refugee camps and responding to the emergency and post emergency phases following the 7.9 and 7.4 magnitude earthquakes in Nepal.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
