The young people we work with have experienced many challenges and often arrive in the UK feeling alone,
vulnerable, isolated and lost.
They often don't have the support of their families or
speak the language or understand the local culture, therefore they need somewhere where they feel safe, accepted and supported in order to be able to grow and develop.
Dost aims to provide this space to them and to equip them
for their journey ahead.
