We also provide refugees, asylum seekers, newly arrived families resettling in the UK and those from settled communities in the UK, with education and opportunities to help enhance their quality of life in the UK.

We are active in the inner-city areas of Birmingham and areas deemed as deprived – Alum Rock, Saltley, Lozells, Small Heath, Northfield and Erdington.

We have been working with families since 2020 and have built good relationships reflected in our engagement figures.

We are a part of Birmingham City Council’s VPRS Partnership Board and are also currently working with other partner organisations
on a number of projects – BSMHT, NHS, UOB, Spring Housing and Community Connexions.
RAI were contracted to set up focus/listening groups so these organisations could use information gathered to inform their own services.

We have predominantly worked with the Syrian refugees but are now beginning to reach out
and offer our services to the Ukrainian and Afghan families.
We have been also working and networking with other grass root voluntary organisations like Saathi House, Nishkam Trust, Age Concern and Blesst Centre who work with elderly/vulnerable population including South Asians, Indians and Black/Caribbean Africans.

Our team consists of trained professionals who provide a range of support services before, during and after the projects are completed.
