Introduction
The Family Refugee Support Project grew out of concern among local health professionals about the plight of asylum seekers and refugees locally.
The Project received Health Action Zone funding from September 2000 until March 2003. Initially, the Royal Liverpool Children’s Trust administered the Project. Links were also made with the Medical Foundation for the Care of Victims of Torture in London, who were running the Natural Growth Project a horticultural therapy service.
In the years since its inception, FRSP has evolved from its health service beginnings to being an independently registered charity (reg no: 1098825). It is now based within the Dingle multi-agency resource centre (DMAC) at the former Toxteth Town Hall close to Liverpool’s city centre.
Mission Statement
The Family Refugee Support Project is dedicated to improving, preserving and protecting the mental health of refugee and asylum seeking families in Merseyside through the provision of psychotherapy, using horticulture as a therapeutic medium.
Values, Ethos and Principles
FRSP works to a distinctive ethos and set of values. Respect for cultural and religious differences, honouring client's choices and independence are key principles.
Funding
The Project has previously been funded by The Big Lottery-Community Fund and private donations. Since 2008, FRSP has three main sources of funding: Big Lottery Reaching Communities Fund, Comic Relief and The Tudor Trust.
