Ways to Support

Get Involved

Partner With TFSW to Make a Difference

There are many different ways you can get involved with TFSW.  Sign up for our quarterly newsletters and fascinating podcasts.  Spread the word about our services and recommend our training and supervision to anyone you think would benefit.  Set up a regular donation. Or, if you work for a company, find out how we can work together for mutual benefit.  We will post job and volunteer opportunities here as they arise.

Individual Donations

Set up a regular donation to TFSW, no matter how small, to help us continue our vital work.  We receive no statutory funding, so we rely on your support. If you’re familiar with counselling, you’ll know how important our support is to traumatised people who can’t afford to pay for private counselling. 

Corporate Engagement

Helping Organisations

At TFSW, we believe companies can play a vital role in supporting refugees and asylum seekers. By partnering with us, your company can:

  • Demonstrate your commitment to social responsibility and community impact helping you to deliver your CSR/ESG goals.

  • Drive positive change by contributing to building a more inclusive and compassionate society.

  • Engage your employees by offering training programmes that foster empathy and cultural understanding.

Helping Employees

By providing your employees with training on trauma-informed care, cultural sensitivity, and effective communication, you can equip them with the skills needed to create a more welcoming and inclusive workplace. Our training programmes can help your staff: 

  • Develop empathy and gain a deeper understanding of the experiences of refugees and asylum seekers.

  • Learn how to communicate effectively with individuals from diverse backgrounds.

  • Foster a more inclusive workplace, creating a welcoming environment for all employees. 

How to Get Involved

In addition to financial or in-kind donations, your company can make a significant impact by exploring a strategic partnership with us. By aligning your company's values and goals with TFSW's mission, you can create a lasting legacy of support for refugees and asylum seekers while also benefiting from the positive outcomes for you and your teams.

For companies with specialised skills or resources, offering pro-bono support can be invaluable. Whether it's providing legal advice, accounting services, or technical expertise, your contributions can help us address critical needs and improve the lives of those we serve.

“I rely on Trauma Foundation South West always being there.  There’s no-one else who offers that longer-term psychotherapy, which is vital for long-term healing. What comes with that is a meaningful ability to supervise and train other people, including our staff. TFSW staff are so intuitive, and with skills I’ve never found in another organisation.”
