Our Story
Today UareUK is a thriving community of people from all over the world, based in Wrexham, which is made up of Our Refugee Hub for Sanctuary Seekers and then our wider community projects
The Peace Kitchen , Gardd Heddwch (Our Community Garden) and our Bits n Peaces preloved sales. You can learn much more about these wonderful moving parts of UareUK on our website and in our book ‘UareUK – 10 years in the making’.
UareUK began in 2015 as a spontaneous grassroots movement—an outpouring of compassion and determination that united people from across the UK and Europe. What started with a simple desire to help, without knowing exactly how, quickly grew into something extraordinary. Communities from Chester, Wirral, Liverpool, and North Wales came together, driven by a shared purpose. People gathered aid, organised events, we got registered charity status in 2016 and built networks that still endure today.
Our Peace Kitchen is the heart of everything, the heart of the UareUK Home and it is driven by wonderful women who themselves came to Wrexham to seek safety. Today they are cooking up wonderful things in more ways than one!
