"Ready and equipping ourselves effectively"
The Alfred-Fischer-Hall in Hamm-Heessen, which has served as an emergency shelter for refugees since late 2023, will be closing its doors at the end of September. The state of North Rhine-Westphalia has decided not to renew the lease for the hall, and the current residents will be relocated to other facilities within the district.
The Office for Integration, Foreigner, and Refugee Affairs (Amt für Integration, Ausländer und Flüchtlinge) in Hamm, responsible for managing the shelter, can be found at Sachsenweg 65, 59073 Hamm. Although the physical address is provided, further information about the office's operating hours and specific services offered are not mentioned in the text.
Up to 400 people could be accommodated in the Alfred-Fisher-Hall, with around 150 currently residing there. The residents will be moved to other facilities, with necessary renovation and repair work to be carried out on the Alfred-Fischer-Hall once they have vacated.
The city of Hamm has not had any refugee assignments for nearly two years. With the closing of the Alfred-Fischer-Hall, around 240 free communal accommodation places are expected to become available in Hamm. The state of North Rhine-Westphalia has agreed not to assign refugees to the city during the operation of the shelter, but further accommodation places can be acquired at short notice if necessary.
The service portal for the Office for Integration, Foreigner, and Refugee Affairs in Hamm is the only source of information provided in the text. Although a phone number or website is not mentioned, further details about the office and its services can be found there. The text also states that the Alfred-Fischer-Hall can be converted back into an emergency shelter within 72 hours if needed in the future.
It is not specified whether the Alfred-Fischer-Hall will be used again as a cultural and event center by the city of Hamm. The current residents are expected to be accommodated in other facilities of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia in the district. Herr Schulz is in charge of the Office for Integration, Foreigner, and Refugee Affairs in Hamm.
