🚨❄ ASSIST Winter Solidarity Appeal is LIVE.

This winter is tougher than ever for people seeking asylum. Hostility is rising and this weekend’s devastating reforms would strip people of the rights they need to build a life in the UK.
Here in Sheffield we say not in our name!

7–10 August, communities across the UK are coming together for the @RefugeeTogether #WelcomeWeekend — a nationwide stand in solidarity with people seeking sanctuary.
This weekend, join us and send a powerful message of solidarity and compassion. 🧡
More info in the post below ⬇

[Together With Refugees 🧡 @RefugeeTogether]

Show solidarity this Welcome Weekend.

Crowds of protesters & far-right activists are rallying outside of hotels to stoke violence & intimidate refugees.

They want to force a narrative that pits refugees & our communities against each other.

We cant let that happen. 🧵

As hostility towards people seeking sanctuary escalates, marked by far-right attacks like in Epping, one individual's words stand out
"I hope you can be a voice for fairness and show the world that every refugee has a story."
