About this service
One-to-one settlement support, referrals and community connection for LGBTQ+ asylum seekers, refugees and newcomers. The foundation clearly states that it does not write letters attesting to a person's LGBTQ+ identity; refugee sponsorship requests must use its formal review process rather than ordinary email.

Service intelligence
Know before you go
Booking lead time
Email for an in-person refugee-centre appointment; ordinary messages are not accepted as sponsorship applications.
Best time
Weekday 10:00-17:00. Use the Distress Centre after hours for immediate non-emergency crisis support.
Who it suits
LGBTQ+ asylum seekers, refugees, immigrants, friends, supporters and settlement partners.
What to prepare
Begin with the official asylum information and legal-aid route; never pay anyone for a letter supposedly proving LGBTQ+ identity.
Provider inclusion
The service is explicitly built for queer newcomer settlement and gives unusually clear boundaries about what it can and cannot provide.
