If you are an Albanian national and have been returned to Albania, or you are about to be returned from the United Kingdom, Medaille Trust can help you rebuild your life in Albania. This could be before you leave or up to 12 months after you return.
Medaille Trust is committed to helping you successfully resettle in Albania. We work closely with a network of Albanian civil society organisations, tailoring support to your individual needs. We offer a 12-month programme which focuses on support for employment, education or training, and supporting you working towards your aspirations. We can also offer more immediate support such as help on arrival in Albania and short-term housing.
We work with you to understand what help you may need. Our aim is to ensure you return safely and to support you with any future plans or aspirations you have. This could be starting a business, reuniting with family or onward travel to a new country.
