Our access to health care project is to listen and explore how people have been accessing their health care and what that
experience has been like for them. We have identified groups and we will seek to listen and outline what the specific issues are for those communities.
Our focus for this project was to engage with asylum seekers who have been accommodated in hotels in Leicester.
We wanted to find out any challenges people face, the barriers that they have to accessing services and how they perceive and interact with the health and social care systems.
In August and September 2023, we visited three hotels in Leicester and spoke to 65 people. We also visited the Leicester City of Sanctuary in October 2023 and spoke to 25 people.
