1. Read the official guest guidance
When you arrive in the United Kingdom under the Homes for Ukraine scheme, it is easy to miss important information. Official guest guidance brings together help on work, benefits, education and health.
What to do: Open the GOV.UK Homes for Ukraine guest guidance collection and read the main pages. Focus on the sections about money, housing, work, school and health that are most relevant to your situation.
What do you need: You need some quiet time and, if possible, a way to save or print the pages that matter most to you.
Outcomes: You will have a clearer picture of your rights and available support after arrival in the UK.
Lifehack: Note down questions that appear while you read and take them to a local support centre or advice service.
