What a loss! Neil was an inspirational figure for all of us. He touched so many lives directly and through his long-lasting community organising work. I am really saddened to hear about his death! May his soul rest in peace!
Devastated to announce our founder @NeilJamesonUK has passed away. Our thoughts are with his loved ones.
Such a great legacy in UK democracy and social justice, Neil often shared this famous quote - “It is not hope that gives rise to action, it is action that inspires hope”

In London, we take our humanitarian responsibility seriously. We don’t just tolerate those fleeing war and persecution, we welcome and embrace them.
I will continue to do everything possible to help refugees—and I urge the Government to do the same.
London, our call for peace today echoed around the capital and across the world.
We stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine, and with all people affected by war and conflict ☮️
We are looking for a driven and experienced project officer, committed to supporting #London’s efforts to re-settle #refugees.
Interested or know someone?

Yesterday, I met with community organisations, local government colleagues & funders to recognise all the great work they have done to support Londoners since the start of the pandemic 2 years ago, identify what we have learnt and plan for an even more collaborative future.
The UN estimates four million Ukrainians could become refugees as a result of President Putin's invasion.
London stands ready to play its part—but it's the Govt that must provide fully-funded and accessible routes for Ukrainians seeking sanctuary here. Any delay will cost lives.
Calling London-based #CommunitySponsorship groups! This could be a wonderful opportunity from @migratefulUK for someone in the families you have welcomed to the UK.
Londoners have shown incredible support to the Ukrainian people this past week.
I’ve been told that the best way to help is through financial donations, rather than food, medicine or clothes.
If you’d like to help, there is a list of charities to donate to here:
Let’s be absolutely clear: Ukrainian civilians looking for refuge should not be filling out complicated visa applications when they are fleeing a war zone. London has a long history of giving asylum to those in need. The Government must urgently provide safe routes for sanctuary.
Don’t miss out! Wave 4 of the #London Afghan Emergency Response Survey is now open.
Help contribute to the collective understanding of the needs of Afghan arrivals in London & the organisations supporting them:
