About us

We are one of the UK's leading providers of quality housing and support services to refugees and asylum seekers.

We help facilitate and develop independence, easing refugee and asylum seekers' integration in to this country. We also promote the positive contribution that they make to the UK.

We have specialised in supporting refugees since the 1950s and now operate a diverse range of services across London, the Midlands and Yorkshire. Our 120 specialist staff are skilled, experienced and committed and we pride ourselves on supporting people from all over the world, no matter what their race or religion. We currently support refugees from over 40 countries, from Albania to Zimbabwe.

In April 2007 (then known as Refugee Housing Association), we merged with StepForward, Threshold Support and Walbrook Support to form Metropolitan Support Trust. Metropolitan Support Trust is the support and care arm of Metropolitan Housing Partnership

Refugee Support is the brand name for Metropolitan Support Trust's (MST) specialist refugee and asylum seeker service.
