Yesterday marked the 75th anniversary of the 1951 Refugee Convention, a landmark agreement that established the right to seek asylum and continues to form the foundation of international refugee protection. #RefugeeConvention #RefugeesWelcome
It was fantastic to see 150 staff at Lewisham College take part in Speak up for Sanctuary training, building confidence to respond to harmful comments about migrants through respectful conversations and thoughtful questioning. #SchoolsOfSanctuary #LewishamCollege #Sanctuary
Hey Andy Burnham! A different future is possible. For too long refugees have been unfairly blamed for wider social and economic challenges. Now is the time to draw a clear line under this approach. #TogetherWithRefugees #LRMN #AndyBurnham
