We source furnishings for a home for each refugee family we resettle. Can you help with sourcing the furniture, quality checking and placing it in a home?

This requires a team of people who can help to turn a house into a wonderful home on a minimal budget. The family arrive with nothing but their suitcases, so will need everything provided. This role is quite intense for a short while and then ends once the family arrives. If you wanted to continue to be involved, then there are other volunteer roles you are welcome to join and engage with after the house is finished. We would like to include already settled families in helping to furnish the home as we want the family to be as comfortable at home as possible.
