WWCUK

WWCUK (Welwitschia Welfare Centre UK) is a charity in London that provides advice, support and services to Portuguese and Spanish speaking people in the UK.

Initially set up in December 1998 to provide support for Portuguese speaking members of the Angolan community in London, our work has since expanded to reach members of the wider African community along with Portuguese and Spanish language speakers from all over the world. Each year over 1,500 people need our advice and support.

We give a voice to people who might otherwise have no access to the benefits and services available to them. We combat homelessness, debt, and health issues while improving access to services, education and other people in their wider community.

With so many people in these communities living in poverty and outside of the circles of support available to them, we provide an essential link to people with nowhere else to turn.
