The matching process

There are now several trustworthy initiatives set up for matching sponsors and refugees.

Reset

Reset, is a UK registered charity and leads Community Sponsorship in the UK, connecting refugees with over 300 community groups since 2018.

Their matching service is live, and will be available to anyone who is eligible to take part in the Homes for Ukraine scheme.

Sponsors and refugees will need to register on the Reset matching website and will be contacted by the Reset team to begin the matching process.

Sponsors who have already completed an EOI on the government website will need to register on the Reset matching website as well to be considered for a match.
