When Iranian refugee, Erfan, arrived in the UK on Boxing Day three years ago, he had only a smattering of English. Since joining the Action Foundation's free English language classes, he hasn’t looked back. This month, he graduated from Newcastle University with an MSc in Computer Science and has just secured a job within the NHS.
The Action Foundation is raising money for their Action Language school – giving the Gift of Words to refugees, asylum seekers and other migrants across Tyne and Wear. If you would like to support them with a donation, please do so here.
