What our Volunteers say:
"I moved to Scotland for my studies and was looking for a volunteering opportunity that would combine my personal interests and professional background in supporting refugees and asylum seekers with the possibility of meeting like-minded people. ERSC was exactly the place where I found this.
I've been responsible for supporting the first resettled family with practicing their English skills through fun and interactive activities.
I really appreciate ERSC for their person-centred and value-based work and their strong commitment in supporting newcomers in rebuilding their lives. ERSC offers a very supportive environment, great teamwork, openness towards everyone's ideas and trust in their contributions.
- Lena, Family Support Volunteer
Volunteering with the Edinburgh Refugee Sponsorship Circle has been a truly rewarding experience. After graduating from university, I was eager to find a volunteering opportunity that would allow me to learn new skills while making a meaningful impact - ERSC turned out to be the perfect fit!
As a Health Volunteer, I’ve supported a refugee family as they navigate the complexities of the UK healthcare system. ERSC’s person-centred approach prioritises the autonomy of the individuals we support, which I truly appreciate. Volunteering here has not only deepened my understanding of the challenges refugees face but also allowed me to learn more about Syrian culture and make friends.
The team is also a vibrant group of positive and welcoming individuals who come together to tackle any challenge that arises. I’ve never felt alone in this journey; the support from the team has been unwavering!
