Refugee Week Summer Festival Tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/refugee-week-summer-festival-2026-tickets-1986894115786?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true Afghanistan and Central Asian Association (ACAA) was founded in 2001 by Dr Nooralhaq Nasimi, a refugee who arrived in the UK with his young child

ren in a refrigerated container in 1999. Dr Nasimi is the current Director, providing continuity for the charity in retaining its values and mission, and establishing a sound reputation amongst the minority and broader communities. Its recent expansion to Hounslow was prompted by the fact that Hounslow has the highest population of Afghans in London, yet there is no organisation dedicated to serve as a grassroots and frontline charity in Hounslow and the surrounding areas. ACAA is a voluntary organisation that works to empower refugees and asylum seekers, particularly from Afghanistan and Central Asia, from the point of their arrival and throughout their transition to UK settlement. Refugees experience multiple disadvantages ranging from language barriers to being victims of domestic violence and suffering from poor mental health. We understand that disadvantages acting together can make it more difficult for people to integrate and prosper and as such we provide holistic services that cater to the complex and often intersecting needs of our beneficiaries. Over 50% of staff and trustees and 80% of volunteers come from a refugee or migrant background, and many have previously been beneficiaries of ACAA.

Have you wanted to learn about different legal topics but felt daunted by the complexities?

Understanding how the law works in relation to topics like consumer rights, family matters and personal injury are important, as they can affect you and you will need this knowledge in order to make informed decisions.

Look no further! On Monday and Thursday, the 8th and 11th of June, Royal Holloway University’s Legal Advice Centre will be presenting at ACAA about these legal subjects in an informative, but also concise and comprehensible manner. Interpretation will also be available.

The sessions are free and open to all! To learn more, DM us or send an email to [email protected]
