At SHARe Knowsley we have a team of Case Workers, overseen by our Senior Case Worker. We support Asylum Seekers and Refugee’s in the Knowsley borough with many things, not limited to, applying for college, applying for bank accounts, registering with a GP, understanding the local area and culture. We also refer to agencies for specific support such as employability support, debt management etc.

Events Open to the Wider Public
Community Iftars
In Ramadan 2026 we held two Community Iftars, which is the name for the meal used to break fasts during in Islam. Over the two nights we enabled 160 people to come together, listen to the call to prayer (which was performed by one of our clients), a separate prayer room for Muslim attendees to pray in, to share food from a local restaurant, as well as learn about Islam and its traditions.
Christmas Fayre
Our annual Christmas Fayre is held at The Old School House on the last weekend of November. Each year we have a free grotto, as we believe all children who attend the Fayre should get to see Santa. We also have chances to win prizes, buy presents for loved ones and lots of food to enjoy on the day, plus a Grand Raffle with lots of brilliant prizes. Entry is free.
Refugee Week BBQ
Each year on the last day of Refugee Week we host an internal celebration of our clients through a BBQ. This is held in a lovely local venue with a gorgeous outdoor/indoor area, with lots of cultural foods and clients leading dancing and celebrating.
