We are motivated to help our Afghan friends because of the debt we owe them for their unwavering support to UK forces through the 20 years of the Afghanistan campaign. By fighting alongside us, they have placed themselves and their families in great jeopardy under the new regime. We are repaying our debt to them by helping them towards being fully integrated into the UK, with all the opportunities that are open to all UK citizens.
You can help!
Our donors make our aspirations a reality. They help us provide casework support to help families access housing, health and education. It helps us to provide cultural, language and vocational training so that they can find jobs and other opportunities so they become net contributors to UK society.

The people we help are those that UK forces worked most closely with during the Afghanistan campaign. By working with us, they put themselves in grave danger of reprisals from those who are now in power in Afghanistan, and their proxies. They helped us when we asked them to do so. Now it is our turn to help them.
