Here2Help
What is Here2Help?
Here2Help is a service that offers support for people of all ages and is available for both residents and organisations to access information, advice, tools, guidance and local support available to them or others in the local community based on their needs.
Support available for Ukrainian Guests and their Hosts
Here2Help will be a key service to support those arriving and those sponsoring families as part of the Homes for Ukraine scheme to find out about services and activities available locally in Worcestershire.
If you have registered to be a sponsor as part of the Homes for Ukraine scheme, more information from Government will be available soon. There is a frequently asked questions section on the Government website if you have any questions at this stage.
If you have not registered to become a sponsor however would like to offer your individual support for when families arrive, you can register your interest to volunteer.
Local organisations or services who are in a position to provide practical or emotional support who are not already registered on the Here2Help Community Services Directory, can register their details on the Community Services Directory.

Stay Connected
In Worcestershire, as a way of encouraging and supporting people to stay connected we have launched the Stay Connected Pledge. The Pledge works with organisations to ensure their groups and activities are inclusive, welcoming to all and provides opportunities to connect with others. Once organisations have signed the pledge they have access to the stay connected logo which is displayed on their marketing and promotion. If you would like more information about the pledge and how to sign please see the Stay Connected pledge page.
