Awards


Marsh Refugee Volunteer Award

The Award is run in partnership with the Refugee Council. Each of the Council's four regions nominates volunteer projects, with the winner being the project that provides the best and most innovative service to refugees and asylum seekers in the UK.


The 2009 winner is Sarah Bradley

Sarah Bradley won the 2009 Marsh Refugee Volunteer Award for a Homework Club at Stone Road Hostel. Volunteers will run the club and provide assistance to students with their homework in the same way that parents do. The club will provide a suitable venue for study, with all necessary equipment, and will run on a regular basis for as many evenings a week as there are volunteers to run it.
