Thanks to the generosity of her new friends and neighbours, Ameh can smile knowing her daughter will grow up in safety.

Today's tragic loss of life in the Channel, involving children, is heartbreaking. These deaths are a result of the increasing desperation of refugees as their legal routes to safety close. Without legal routes their journeys are dangerous and traffickers are the only winners.

Looking forward to speaking with our MP @simonjamesjupp shortly about the need for the Government to restart refugee resettlement #CommunitySponsorship #refugee

[Anna Roderick @AnnaRoderick1]

Last time I was here was in September 2017 to welcome a Syrian refugee family to a new life in Devon. Now I'm on route to a UN refugee summit to share about experiences of @ABIDEinDevon What a privilege. #communitysponsor

[ABIDE @ABIDEinDevon]

Looking forward to being a part of this.

Another #communitysponsorship group launches in Devon. A great turn out this morning in Sidmouth. Full steam ahead to welcome a refugee family into this lovely seaside town. @CDS_RefRes @PlymouthDiocese

[Devon County Council @DevonCC]

Congratulations to Bude Refugee Support Group on their award. Over here in Devon @ABIDEinDevon led the way for #CommunitySponsorship and there are now 8 approved sponsorship groups with more working on their plans. Wonderful community action to give families life away from war.

Thanks to Awards presenters at #CommunitySponsorshipAwards2019 @bondjk @GRSI, @MauriceAWren @refugeecouncil & (giving it a go) little Mary from Ottery St Mary! @ABIDEinDevon

Two heroines of mine share a moment at the #CommunitySponsorship awards. 7 year old Nour had a tough start in life in Syria & Jordan, but is now thriving in UK with her family thanks to @ABIDEinDevon. Here she gives flowers to @helenhayes_ MP, a tireless champion of #refugees

[Anna Roderick @AnnaRoderick1]

What a treat to be at the #CommunitySponsorshipAwards with these lovely people. Two years in the UK and Hani takes on the role of co-host for the evening.
