Speaking out against the Government's plans

5/12/2025

 
Picture
Today we were on four Heart Radio news broadcasts about the Government's immigration and asylum plans.  

Hear our volunteer Helen speak on behalf of refugees and asylum seekers we support:


"We have been speaking to refugees and asylum seekers who we support and they are really worried.
​

One refugee who volunteers with us said:
'people haven’t felt safe yet, they don’t feel like they have the sense of security, that they initially came and asked for.'"

​

​

​"We are in touch with refugees every day and know that  these proposals lead to fear and uncertainty.

​We are dismayed that their chances of becoming British  citizens are being made more and more difficult."
