Cheshire, Halton and Warrington Race & Equality Centre (CHAWREC) runs a variety of services for BAME communities including asylum seekers, refugees and migrant communities. We provide ESOL from pre entry through to Level 2, which includes wrap around support such as access to health through our ‘Bridging the Gap’ Project and support for Ukrainians through the provision of a Ukrainian support worker. We also host a weekly asylum hub at the Unity Centre, which is a focal point for all BAME communities. We provide immigration casework and are registered with OISC to Level 2. We run projects that support our aims, at the moment we have a project that supports Hong Kongers to settle in the Cheshire area.
We advocate for the needs of all our service users being involved in relevant forums and partnerships across the area.
