“The asylum-seeking period is one of the most challenging things I have ever experienced; it’s a combination of loneliness, hopelessness and anxiety.
The Napier Barracks Drop-In Centre helped me in many ways; they restored my faith in humanity. It’s a great feeling when you’re surrounded by kind people who recognise your presence when you reach a state where you only need your existence to be acknowledged.
Not to mention finding me a suitable solicitor, helping other refugees with their needs and creating a healthy environment for everyone else to unwind and refresh their minds.
In summary, many thanks to those guys who made my journey much easier and bearable.”
