Rotary Club Meeting
Fri, Oct 22nd 2021 at 12:45 pm - 2:00 pm
We meet for lunch at the Holiday Inn. We were to have had a representative of the West End Refugee Service in Newcastle speak to us via Skype about the work of the organisation but she is not now available so this talk was rescheduled to 12th November
West End Refugee Service (WERS) is a registered charity that provides support and opportunities to asylum seekers and refugees on Tyneside. We work to bring about positive change to the lives of people whose futures have been irrevocably changed by past events in their home country.
More information is available on their web which may be found at https://www.wers.org.uk/
