Activities & Mission

The Destitution Project (DP) aims to provide a safe environment where asylum seekers and refugees who live in Bolton can find friendship, food, and practical help. We deliver our support through two primary arms of activity:1) A weekly Drop-in Centre on a Wednesday, in the Wesley Suite at Victoria Hall. 2) Casework services for asylum seekers, including those who become destitute.
