Please take 15 minutes to give this statement a read and engage with the government consultation. It’s a powerful opportunity to have our voices heard and to stand for the biblical values of compassion, dignity for all and hospitality. Links in my bio for more info

[Welcome Churches @WelcomeChurches]

@WelcomeChurches has issued a press release in response to the UK government’s ‘New Plan for Immigration Policy Statement’ announcements. We are strongly encouraging churches to engage with the 6 week long public consultation. Read it here ➡️

It’s been a month since we launched our Refugees Online project. @Churchcentral Birmingham have been helping refugees and asylum seekers get online during the pandemic.
Tim Brown, a leader at the church has written about it in our new blog post: https://t.co/6nXhpjaneZ

Not been on social media much in 2021, so a delayed update. In January I had the immense privilege of starting as CEO for @welcomechurches. A charity working to inspire, resource & equip the UK Church to welcome & support refugees & asylum seekers. Excited for the journey ahead!

[Luke Goss @Luke_Goss]

@RobertJenrick please continue the #EveryoneIn initiative. It is vitally important we continue to support those experiencing homelessness and extend it to those with NRPF throughout the course of the pandemic. Please attend our Feb homelessness summit @CitizensUK

[Citizens UK @CitizensUK]

The Government's #EveryoneIn initiative meant 15,000 people were given a safe place to stay this year.

People like Catalin, who has been homeless with NRPF, had a bed for the first time.

Sign our card to @RobertJenrick & call for this continued support https://t.co/WcVOd0KYvS
