What We Do


RETAS stands for Refugee Education Training ​Advice Service​ and therefore our services focus predominantly on supporting individuals to access education and employment opportunities. However, one of the key characteristics of RETAS services is providing holistic support and therefore we often support individuals with a range of different issues.

About Us

Established in 2002, RETAS (Refugee Education Training Advice Service) has a vision to see all refugees, asylum seekers and other vulnerable migrants to feel welcome and supported to fully integrate into society.

​We provide assistance with access to education, re-qualification, training and employment to help them better integrate in their communities. We strive to build confidence and hope in our service users, and empower them to build a safe and secure life here in the UK.
