About Migrant Information Hub
The Migrant Information Hub was created by Migration Yorkshire in March 2020. It aims to offer resources and information to service providers to
support people with different migrant backgrounds to stay safe, connected and informed during covid-times
help reduce the harmful impacts of Coronavirus on Yorkshire and Humber and on people’s lives.
Although we are continuously updating and developing our website, we have some gaps in our resource library. If you would like to share your resources through the Hub or you would like to offer any suggestions, please do get in touch.
