Strengthening Communities through Support and Solidarity

Based in Glasgow, we stand with refugees and people seeking asylum to build safety, justice, belonging and integration. Community InfoSource is powered by volunteers and rooted in human rights and equality.

Who we are

People seeking asylum and refugees face huge challenges in a complex hostile system, and many have lived through traumatic experiences. They may be dealing with unsafe or unstable housing, stress and poor mental health, isolation, and barriers to settling in. We work alongside people to find solutions and offer practical, trusted support.

Our Services

We offer a range of free services to provide practical and emotional support. This includes one-to-one casework, ASH drop-ins for housing issues, and ESOL classes to learn English. We also run community workshops, a befriending service, and wellbeing activities to help people connect and feel supported.

Drop Ins

Our drop in sessions offer free, confidential support for people seeking asylum with housing issues. You can speak to a caseworker face-to-face without an appointment.

Workshops

Our empowering workshops, such as "Challenging Violence Against Women," give you the knowledge and tools to create positive change and build a safer community.

Your support matters more than ever

People seeking asylum and refugees face barriers that are too often unseen or misunderstood. Every donation, shared story, and act of solidarity helps us stand alongside people, challenge injustice, and open the door to a better future.
We want a Scotland that welcomes people, values diversity, and delivers justice—creating lasting change shaped by the communities we serve.
