Refugee Hardship Fund — Sudan Arrivals

Emergency relief for Sudanese refugees and asylum seekers arriving in the UK, delivered in partnership with Islamic Relief.

The Sudan Arrivals Project supported Sudanese refugees and asylum seekers arriving in the UK, many facing undignified conditions in asylum hotels and detention centres. Funded by an Islamic Relief grant and delivered with London for Sudan, Madaniya, and the Sudanese Legal Network, it provided a hardship fund for food, clothing, and travel — capped at £100 per adult and £50 per child — alongside community events and wellbeing support.
