The British Council for Aid to Refugees was formed in 1950 to promote co-ordination between British voluntary organisations working for refugees. The Council maintains in London a hostel for forty-eight elderly refugees who are supported by voluntary funds from the general public, and there are also hostels in Bristol and Cardiff. The main work of the Council is the welfare of refugees who have come to this country since the war and who have made a contribution to our economy by their work in the undermanned industries. Refugees are advised on employment and personal problems, and where necessary financial assistance is given.
