We are incredibly excited to announce that we have officially launched The Anchor: a community of people whose regular donations help Swindon’s asylum seeking and refugee population rebuild their lives with dignity. Your steady support can change lives and create lasting impact for people like Ali and Ayesha. Read their story by clicking the link below:

The Anchor is a community of everyday people who regularly donate to The Harbour Project. People who, like us, help those seeking safety feel supported and hopeful during challenging times. Our regular donors come from all walks of life: young families, retired couples, professionals, some who have personally accessed our services before, and others who just want our town to thrive together.

At The Harbour Project, we never know when someone new will come to seek our help. The Anchor members ensure the doors are open and a warm welcome is always available. By making a regular monthly donation, you will become part of The Anchor. Your consistent support will guarantee that our services, such as our Advice Centre, English classes, and wellbeing activities, remain steady and stable for everyone who needs it.

We chose the name ‘The Anchor’ because your gift directly keeps people safe, secure, and hopeful during the storms of life.

If you would like to make a one-off donation instead, that will be most apprecited. You can click the ‘DONATE’ button at the top of the page and then select ‘One-Off’ to do so. Thank you.
