AGLAS (Charity number=1114127) is a charity dedicated to improving the lives, changing the future and integrating people originating from the African Great Lakes region living in Stoke-on-Trent. It started in June 2005. AGLAS stands for African Great Lakes in Staffordshire. The African Great Lakes region covers six countries: Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda). The charity aims at providing support to the first generation and newly established immigrants from the region who are mainly people who fled the plight of acts of genocide, civil wars and political instability. We engage with the most vulnerable of those immigrants - women, children and asylum seekers/refugees- through a range of information and participative services in education, health, culture, employment and sports. We run education and culture activities and, in future, we intend to extend out activities in the African Great Lakes Region.
