A joint research project was conducted to address health and wellbeing inequalities for refugees and asylum seekers, funded by a Community Research Grant from the Institute for Social Justice at York St John University (YSJU). The project aimed to identify gaps in service provision and enhance the quality and impact of services for the benefit of the target communities. It involved a participatory approach, consulting with community members to promote their inclusion in the design of services.
This research project was a collaboration between York St John University and the charity Give a Gift which wanted to find out about the challenges that refugees and asylum seekers living in Leeds face, how they feel every day, and what suggestions or recommendations they have to improve their quality of life. It also aimed to find out what refugees and asylum seekers think about the services that the charity Give a Gift delivers.
