Join us for our 2023 AGM on 22 January
We look forward to seeing you, reviewing all we have achieved in the last 12 months and sharing our plans for the ongoing support of asylum seekers and refugees in Burnley.
Burnley is a welcoming place and our charity is a good example of that. People who are claiming or have been granted asylum have been through a lot before they arrive in our town, often with very little to their name. Starting a new life in a strange country can be bewildering and complicated. We want to ensure our new neighbours settle in, feel valued, able to be themselves and lead happy and productive lives. To do that we provide friendship, advice and a wide range of support services.
New Neighbours Together started working with asylum seekers and refugees in Burnley in 2017. We provide practical support and advice, as well as a space for sharing food, culture, language and friendship - providing a warm welcome to everyone who comes to us for help. We respect and value people of all backgrounds and faiths and are working to promote diversity within our community.
Have you got some spare time? Are you interested in people from other cultures? Have you got good quality clothing and household items to donate? There are so many ways that you can help the asylum seekers and refugees in Burnley and we're always looking for new volunteers to help us out. Please get in touch if you have some time to spare and the skills we are looking for - we'd love to welcome you on board.
We look forward to seeing you, reviewing all we have achieved in the last 12 months and sharing our plans for the ongoing support of asylum seekers and refugees in Burnley.
We have an exciting new opportunity for a proactive, highly organised individual to join our team as administration and advice manager.
We are delighted that our donations manager Susan has won the ‘Volunteer of the Year’ award at Burnley’s Above and Beyond awards.

On 11 July we had the honour of being presented with our Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service crystal and certificate at a ceremony at County Hall Preston.
