Welcome Club at Huddersfield Ukrainian Club
Council staff and partners provide a Welcome Club at Huddersfield Ukrainian Club. It provides support for people who have arrived from the Ukraine on a family visa and those who have arrived through the Homes for Ukraine scheme.
Drop-in sessions
Drop-in sessions are available on Tuesday.
People can have an initial discussion about how things are since arrival and see what support may be needed. Guidance may include how to:
- access benefits - this will take a little time so it's important that they apply for this as soon as possible
- access a bank account
- apply for nursery, school and college places
- register with a GP and dentist
- learn English
- progress towards employment when the time is right.
Please allow enough time when you visit as the drop-in sessions are often busy. You may need to wait for the service you wish to see. Alternatively you may wish to make an appointment and return at a later date.
The DWP advisor will be available at the Welcome Club every Tuesday except for the following dates:
- 14 May
- 16 July
