Lotus community
A residential community supporting unaccompanied young asylum seekers
Our Lotus community is a safe and welcoming space for young people age 16-18 who are unaccompanied asylum seeking children. We provide studio accommodation in a shared flat with other young people.
Our staff team is comprised of dedicated professionals who provide visiting support to our residents. Within the community we have a small well-being hub where we offer a range of services including mental health support, wellbeing workshops and access to training and education programs.
In addition to our staff team, our community also includes residential volunteers who provide additional support and guidance to our residents. These volunteers live alongside our residents and are committed to helping them build a brighter future.

At our community, we believe that every young person deserves a safe and supportive place to call home. We are committed to providing our residents with the resources and support they need to succeed.
