In #RefugeeWeek we're thinking of displaced children everywhere & planning more training to help you with those with especially traumatic experiences. Our materials, already in Spanish & Arabic, are being translated now into Polish & Ukrainian. Together we can make a difference!

Happy #RefugeeWeek! Share with us what you're doing to celebrate this week! We love to hear stories of #CommunitySponsorship and community-led welcome of refugees, from both #refugees and #sponsors. Please reach out if you would be interested in being interviewed!

Sign the open letter: no confidence in the Prime Minister and Chancellor!

Sign the open letter: no confidence in the Prime Minister and Chancellor!

A fine is not enough. I just signed the open letter calling on all MPs to properly hold the Prime Minister and Chancellor to account. Add your name if you agree

In 2050 you’ll look like this @RishiSunak - that’s when new North Sea oil and gas will deliver energy. We can’t wait almost 3 decades to stop soaring energy bills and funding Putin’s war. Make homes greener and boost renewables to #GetOffGas now!

People across the country and across the political spectrum want #destructivefishing like supertrawlers banned from UK Marine Protected Areas. #GeorgeEustice and @DefraGovUK will you listen to the people and ban them?
Really hope we get to collaborate in 2022. 👍🏼. Take care until then. Xx

A lovely little feel good story. Kintsugi has a long history in Japanese culture. It is commonly used to rejoin broken pottery. Rather than conceal a piece's cracks, the aim is to celebrate the unique history of the object by showcasing its imperfections. mymodernmet.com/victor-solom…

Art Refuge is thinking of creative ways to bring us together during this challenging time. Building on our work with #refugees in northern France, we invite you to sit around a virtual #communitytable and help create a patchwork tablecloth: coronaquilt.org

Working with teams online during the #Covid19 crisis from @BobbyLloyd_ & Miriam Usiskin @artrefugeuk was really inspiring and helpful in reframing our thoughts around connectivity in practice. @baat_org Thank you 🙏
