St. Augustine's Centre Halifax

St. Augustine's Centre Halifax At our vibrant community centre in Halifax, we support refugees and people seeking asylum.
🧡 We also run a befriending and integration service.

We are a specialist charity working with people seeking asylum, and new refugees, who are rebuilding their lives in Calderdale. We give people the practical support they need to rebuild their lives with dignity, and offer a range of activities that help people feel happier and more connected. We help with advice on immigration and asylum, and offer one-to-one support with welfare, housing, health,

and access to wider services. Renowned for our holistic and person-centred approach, we provide a welcoming, safe and inclusive space. We offer English language classes, training, creative, social, sports and wellbeing activities, trips and volunteering opportunities. Our centre has a free shop, salon, chill out room and garden, and we also refurbish bikes and second-hand tech. On Mondays and Thursdays, we provide a cooked lunch at our Welcome Cafe, which is free and open to everyone. Come and join us sometime! Together we are building a diverse community which challenges injustice and puts the needs and voices of our Centre Members at the heart of our work.

This , we honour the courage of those seeking safety.

At St Augustine’s, we believe every person should be able to live with dignity, be welcome, and have hope—no matter where they come from.

Refugee Week 2026 marks 75 years since the Refugee Convention — a landmark agreement affirming that those forced to flee deserve protection, dignity, and hope. For 75
years, it has provided the legal foundation that has saved millions of lives. 🧡 Refugee Week

A group of Centre Members have been taking part in a fantastic new Exploring and Belonging project with MESH 🌍💚

Together, they’ve been learning about the history of Halifax, visiting important places around the town, and building new skills through activities like growing plants and cooking 🏡🌿

At the start of the project, everyone planted their own seeds… and we can already see how much they've grown 🌱

Thanks to Calderdale Food Network and The National Lottery Heritage Fund 🧡

A great few days at NT Hardcastle Crags with Live Wild ! 🌿🔥

Centre Members got stuck into learning new bushcraft skills, sharing stories, and enjoying the outdoors together. We even made dandelion “honey” over the fire 🍯🔥🌳✨

A rare opportunity to to reflect, find some peace and discover the beauty of the Yorkshire woodlands - especially in the UK’s first ‘Woodland of Sanctuary’!

A big thank you to Live Wild and NT Hardcastle Crags National Trust for making it so special! 🪵🔥🌳
