Meet qualified doctor Kawther Nasar, an alumn of the RefuAid 'Language: A Gateway' programme.

From Monday 22 November, more passengers arriving to England and Northern Ireland will be eligible for reduced entry requirements. Further vaccines have been approved, meaning more vaccinated adults will be eligible. 

An unexpected vacancy on our Board of Trustees has been filled by the candidate who narrowly missed joining after the last election in May.  

English UK welcomes the travel changes announced yesterday which will make it easier for more international students to travel to the UK.

From Monday 1 November, the seven remaining countries will come off the UK's red travel list. They are Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador, Haiti and the Dominican Republic.

Also on Monday 1 November, 30 more countries will be added to the UK's approved vaccine programme list, bringing the total number to over 135 countries. Fully vaccinated adults (who have a UK-approved vaccine) and all under 18s arriving from these countries will not need to quarantine and only need to take a day two test.

We are delighted to welcome more new members to our association for the second month in a row and look forward to meeting representatives in person at one of our events very soon.
