THE number of visas issued in Stroud under the Homes For Ukraine scheme has been revealed. 

The scheme allows Ukrainian nationals and their family members to come to the UK if they have a named sponsor.

Visas have been issued to local authorities based on the postcode of the sponsor’s address, or of the accommodation address if the applicant is not staying with the sponsor.

The data has been published by the Home Office and the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities.

84 visas have been issued in Stroud according to the latest figures. 

The data does not contain the number of visas issued through the Ukraine Family Scheme, which allows applicants to join family members or extend their stay in the UK.
