Had a wonderful time at Green Park school with Raga in the school assembly. Raga was talking about her journey from Sudan, children asked so many questions: ‘how long did it take?’ ‘what’s it like to be in a war?’ @kentschoolofsanctuary @GreenKordofan.

Attended the Kent Community Sponsorship event yesterday. Gained an insight into life in Syria and why people have no choice but to flee. Communities can come together to welcome refugees. KCC have pledged to resettle 130 families in this area #ourworkshopscount.
