We hope that people will listen to these stories and consider becoming #hosts, so people seeking asylum in Wales do not have to face destitution. #WarmWelshWelcome#CroesoCynnesCymraeg
Last week was exciting! We worked with people seeking asylum in Swansea, Cardiff and Newport to provide a platform on their view of Wales and the need for safe accommodation during an asylum application!
Lots of new content pending 🧡 #WarmWelshWelcome
We are working with @HJCymru to recruit #hosts who can offer accommodation to refugees from #Ukraine, #Afghanistan and other regions of conflict. Everyone deserves a safe place to stay when they arrive in the UK. Find out more here 👇

The House of Lords voted to give people seeking asylum the right to work.
This will fundamentally prevent people from becoming #destitute and will instead promote #dignity.
Well done to those leading and participating in the #LiftTheBan coalition! Fantastic work 🧡✨
Reminder: every single person in one of these cars, fleeing Ukraine to seek safety, is someone just like you.
When you’re fleeing for safety there is no time to queue at the embassy. There's no form to fill.
A THREAD 🧵
1/
6 months since the Taliban takeover of #Afghanistan. Those forced to flee were promised #AWarmWelcome. Instead, people face criminalization under the #AntiRefugeeBill
We're tired of seeing people being prevented from rebuilding a home as a result of policy. #MyHomeIs4Utoo.
Hosting is a powerful way to prevent people seeking asylum from becoming destitute and homeless. This project will help us raise awareness about the influential role of hosts in Wales. If you have hosted, will you share your story?
We are looking for people in Cardiff, Swansea, Wrexham, Newport to help us create powerful content to campaign for increased bed spaces for people seeking asylum in Wales. We have a range of projects and opportunities! Can you help us make Wales proud of hosting refugees? 🧡
Home4U has joined @giveasyoulive. You can raise money as you shop online! If you support us, money raised will go towards the cost of housing people seeking asylum who are homeless. What a great way to shop online more ethically in the run up to Xmas! 🎅

Great to see Home4U providing opportunities like this for their residents, who are people seeking asylum. Building skills and having the chance to engage in new opportunities is an essential part of integration!
@TyKrishnaCymru hosted a lovely cooking workshop for our residents! Using healthy and affordable ingredients, we had so much fun making this delicious recipe and our residents left with a food hygiene certificate and a recipe book! #CookingWorkshop
🧡The #AntiRefugeeBill reaches a crucial stage in Parliament this week. You can help to oppose the bill by using @AsylumMatters's resources to effectively engage with your Local MP. Tell them that you stand with refugees and want a kinder asylum system. 👇

We want to share / retweet / amplify the campaign actions of hundreds of our coalition members who are calling for a fairer, kinder, more effective approach to #refugees. But first we need some followers. Please R/T & follow. #TogetherWithRefugees#WhoWeAre
🧡You can also support small local charities such as us and @sharedydd, who both provide accommodation and support to people seeking asylum when they are made destitute by Government Policy.

Good to know from @ukhomeoffice that the vital review of the ban on working has not been forgotten.
3 years on and we're still waiting for the result. Why are people seeking asylum still being forced into poverty and unemployment?

Is the right to work for people seeking asylum under review?
Sajid Javid, 2018: yes
Boris Johnson, 2019: yes
Chris Philp, 2020: yes
Home Office, 2021: no
What's going on? Did this review ever happen? If it did where is it? #LiftTheBan
.@UNHCRUK confirm that Priti Patel's new Borders Bill will break international law.
'The Convention’s definition of a refugee doesn’t vary according to the route of travel, choice of country of asylum, or the timing of a claim.'

For girls.
For boys.
For everyone.
Education is a human right.
But our data shows that refugee girls consistently lag behind when it comes to access.
Join us in changing this. #BackToSchool https://t.co/zNBcrvbxbh

Despite having a lovely afternoon, we were saddened by our resident's low spirits as no real progress is being made on her asylum case - even after 6 years. We reassured that we will help, but the reality of seeking asylum in the UK often means a life being put on hold.
The reality of seeking asylum in the UK. Will refugees from Afghanistan receive a warm welcome if they don't arrive under the Resettlement Scheme? #AsylumSeekers#HostileEnvironment#RefugeesWelcome
