The Benefits of Partnering with Refugee Action Kingston

For Companies

Modern employees are searching for greater meaning in their work. They’re looking to work for companies that are not just financially viable but also contributing to a better world. Likewise, consumers are more likely to buy from a brand which is committed to corporate social responsibility (CSR).

For Us

We couldn’t do what we do without the generous donations of our corporate partners. Their financial support enables us to support our clients with a range of services. Engaging with employers also allows us to find meaningful, impactful work for our clients, so that they can be proud of their career.

Refugee professionals represent a new, untapped talent pool.

The team at Regeneron helped make beautiful backpacks for our young people to have for their summer activities exploring Richmond Park and Kew Gardens.

Employ Refugees and Asylum Seekers

We firmly believe that refugees bring with them a plethora of skills, knowledge and insight which can be invaluable as part of a diverse team. We can connect employers with work-ready candidates.

Refugees are entrepreneurial and resilient individuals who value you’ve only get one chance at life, so make the most of it. They are amongst the hardest-working and positive people I have met: bringing their wealth of experience, determination to succeed and brilliant skillset to any role. By not considering someone who’s a refugee for a role, you are really missing out on someone who could be your next superstar employee.
