Can’t find a group at your university? Start a STAR group.

University of Edinburgh (Edinburgh STAR)

At Edinburgh STAR, we run regular fundraisers to support refugee charities in the UK and abroad, as well as organising volunteering projects in Edinburgh. We work closely with The Welcoming, a group helping people settle in Edinburgh and providing them with resources, guidance, food and much more.
You can find us most active on Instagram to find out what’s going on!

University of Glasgow (Glasgow STAR)

At the University of Glasgow STAR, we run weekly informal English conversation classes on Monday evenings at the Maryhill Integration Network. We also run social, awareness, and fundraising events, for all our members. Feel free to contact us through our email or through our social media pages: Instagram or Facebook

University of Stirling (Stirling STAR)

Stirling STAR is a collective of students who are passionate about refugee and asylum seeker rights, and who aim to raise money, educate and volunteer with our local refugee group. We host different fun events and have a bunch of exciting projects in the works! You can find us most active on Instagram to find out what’s going on!
