Welcome project
The Welcome Project’s primary aim is to create a truly inclusive community which welcomes all regardless of difference. We work towards achieving community cohesion, sharing and integration by support and signposting, tackling racism, promoting tolerance and challenging stereotypes. Celebrating culture and tradition of the diverse range of identities in Lisburn City is key, especially relevant for Newcomer families including Asylum Seekers and Refugees.
