Abdul Mageed Educational Trust (AMET) is a Westminster-based charity providing language-led health, wellbeing and safeguarding support for refugee and migrant communities.
Our work is delivered primarily through Peer Support Cafés, providing trusted community spaces where people can access support in Arabic, Amharic and Tigrinya, reduce isolation and engage earlier with health, safeguarding and local services.
Our approach is preventative, community-led and safeguarding-aware.
