Befriending refugees can be whatever you want it to look like. For many people, it is a simple act of friendship and support. Befrienders typically give an hour a week to spend with the person/ family they are matched with, meeting them in or out of the home, accompanying them to social events or on trips, helping with daily life and just being there for a cup of tea and a chat. They may need help with understanding official letters, booking a doctor's appointment or asking a question of their child's school. But equally, you may decide on a trip to see the sights of London!
