Support in Leeds for Ukrainian refugees

Leeds is showing support for people affected by the crisis in Ukraine, providing accommodation and other forms of assistance to Ukrainian refugees as they build new lives here.

We're continuing our proud track record of helping those in need in recent years, including refugees from Syria, Afghanistan and many other parts of the world.

How you can help

You can offer your home to host a Ukrainian refugee. Find guidance on how to offer your home and register your interest on GOV.UK.
