Working On Refugees' Learning and Development
Salusbury WORLD is a charity that supports refugee and asylum seeking children and families. Established in 1999, it was the first refugee centre to be set up within a primary school.
In 2001 our work featured in the video "In Safe Hands", produced by the Refugee Council and Save the Children.
In 2005 we updated and reprinted our book "Home from Home: a guidance and resource pack for the welcome and inclusion of refugee children and families in school", first published in 2004 by Save the Children.
We are currently working with Comic Relief on a new project - find out more about Shared Futures.
