As part of our Seeking Refuge event, we heard from Sarah Blossom from Solace.

Solace is a mental health charity that works solely with refugees and asylum seekers.

Sarah talked about Solace’s work, some of the common experiences that can have an impact on the mental health of refugees and asylum seekers and some of the ways we can help people that we are supporting.
