Susana:
I came to Welcome to the UK and wanted to take part in both the English classes and the friendship group. All of the staff and volunteers are very helpful and friendly and the friendship group is fun because there are many different nationalities and languages. I have made new friends, learnt about different cultures and I get to practice my English skills. I have become less shy and a more open person.ou would like to feature.
Aizhana:
I joined Welcome to the UK in January 2019. Ilda, the Founder & Coordinator, has supported me and my family through both the good times and the bad. If my family ever has problems, I know that I can depend on Welcome to the UK to help. By coming to the English classes and the friendship group, both my written and spoken English has greatly improved and I am so happy now.
