Manchester City of Sanctuary

People who seek sanctuary, fleeing war & persecution, are looking for mercy, safety & a place to contribute. Manchester can be that place - a city of sanctuary.

📢🎉 MANCHESTER COMMITS TO BECOMING A CITY OF SANCTUARY! 📢🎉

This morning, @ManCityCouncil gave UNANIMOUS support to becoming a recognised city of sanctuary! 🧡

We're thrilled to see our work paying off. A massive thanks to @JoMidge for bringing the motion forward! 🙌

@CRMCCov Love this! 💪

Eid al-Adha Mubarak! 🌙

May this celebration bring peace, hope and welcome to families across the UK and globally. 🌍🧡

This is what happens when our leaders refuse to stand up for sanctuary.
This horrific idea would once have been unthinkable, but attacks on asylum rights under successive Governments have emboldened anti-migrant politicians.

Your regular reminder that every person waiting for any asylum decision should have the right to work.

Banning people from work makes skills stagnate, leaves people stuck in poverty, and makes it so much harder for people to rebuild their lives.
