Welcome to SHARe KNOWSLEY
SHARe Knowsley is a small grassroots charity that wants to help improve the lives of those living in our community who have left their homes and everything they know, to escape the horrors of persecution, violence, war and oppression.
Not only is the word SHARe an acronym for Supporting and Helping Asylum seekers and Refugees, but it also sums up our philosophy in wanting to share our lives with whoever we meet, irrespective of where they come from, their story, language, colour, race, faith and gender. We treat everyone we meet with dignity, love, care and respect. Offering friendship is at the heart of everything we do .
We work hard to create a support network for asylum seekers and refugees, giving them the assistance they need to live with dignity, so that they can rebuild their lives.
Share Knowsley are currently looking to recruit three new trustees to join our Board which is made up of a small team who are collectively responsible for developing and guiding the strategic direction of the organisation, ensuring its long-term stability.
