Supporting young refugees and asylum seekers on the move to restart and rebuild their lives.
What did
we do?
Between 2015 and 2026, Refugee Youth Service supported displaced unaccompanied children and young people to restart and rebuild their lives.
RYS was founded in the camp settlement in Calais, France, formerly known as “The Jungle”, and went on to deliver work in Italy, Greece and the UK.
More information about RYS’s work and projects, including its training of around 1,000 frontline workers and practitioners, can be accessed through the main menu bar above.

RYS Events
'Walking With Afran'
This awareness-raising event is held monthly in different cities across the UK. Over two hours the participants witness Afran’s journey, and learn what it is like to be an unaccompanied child on the move. Participants also uncover a number of interesting truths and common misconceptions about migration.
