BHN extends solidarity to people seeking asylum and experiencing destitution, through providing accommodation, food and subsistence and encouraging creative community involvement and volunteering. BHN started in 2009 to provide practical support to, destitute asylum seekers in Bristol. BHN was entirely run by volunteers for the majority of its history and achieves a lot with very little resources, now relying heavily on our team of around 100 volunteers and 8 part time staff.
