Help and Advice
CLEAR are a small local charity in Southampton who offer a range of information, advice and guidance services to refugees, people seeking asylum and their families.
We have a specialist team that can help and support people who have migrated to the UK from European Union or other European countries.
We also provide employment advice for people who are seeking asylum with a right to work, need help applying for licenses or referral to employment specialists.
Find out more details about our advice services for refugees or send us a WhatsApp message to 07724 592661, or visit us at one of our weekly drop in sessions – details here. You can also complete the Request Advice form (click on the purple button), but please note we are a small local charity based in Southampton who offer advice to refugees, asylum seekers and EU migrants. Our funding means we are unable to help those who are now British citizens (we recommend accessing Citizens Advice) or to help with employment.
If you are from Ukraine, and looking for the latest information to help you, please click here.
We also have a dedicated website to support Hong Kong people living in Southampton, Hampshire or West Sussex – you can find details about that here.
We hold the Advice Quality Standard, which provides you with assurance that the we have met certain criteria that demonstrate a commitment to quality.
We highly recommend the Advice Now website – lots of really helpful information on many different topics – find it here.
