THE ENTHUM FOUNDATION

Our mission is to manage Enthum House, a specialist-supported accommodation for unaccompanied asylum-seeking children (UASC) affected by complex trauma aged 16-18 in East Sussex. We offer person-centred therapeutic, vocational, legal support and community integration to empower its young people to rebuild their lives, explore their individual potential and contribute positively to society.
