Warrington Borough Council
If you live within Warrington Borough Council, and are talking to a potential guest, contact the refugee officer Di White email: email Ukraine@warrington.gov.uk. Diane is the Wellbeing Service Manager & Operational Lead for Asylum Seekers & Refugees.
She has asked if you can send her details of your guests as soon as you’re aware you’ve had a match as it will help to speed this end of things up.
- Makeup of family (ages, genders and relationships), any special needs and then your details (name, address etc).
- A brief description of the accommodation you have that might be helpful
- Ideally this should be ASAP - before the visa is issued, and can just be a provisional situation
