Scope of Our Intervention

Our work is done by volunteers, on an occasional and time-limited basis.

We help people with their paperwork (translation, guidance) and with planning and developing their own projects.

We work within the limits of our skills and resources and never replace qualified professionals (legal, medical or social).

We keep strictly to these limits and respect the privacy and independence of the people we support.
