Course details

As part of our support of Ukraine we are offering help to those who have left their home country in order to find safety in our area.

If you are hosting a Ukrainian refugee these FREE informal sessions are ideal for you and your guest(s).

We will show you and your guests ways to improve your mutual communication and understanding and so support their resettlement and integration.

The sessions will mostly consist of conversation around specific areas of ‘survival’ English such as personal info, Health and safety, public transport etc.

Your guests will have the opportunity to observe and listen to the hosts talk and discuss with them their interests, where they are from, what their hometowns are like etc.
