Happy international #refugeeday! Only a few hours left before we take over Walthamstow Trades Hall for our #refugeeweek community celebration - showcasing exceptionally talented local poets and DJs from across #walthamforest! Join us! wegottickets.com/event/660149/

Today is the day! Our team is taking part in the London #legalwalk to raise awareness about the shocking lack of #accesstojustice for migrants in the UK. Please sponsor us - 🔗 in comments! #refugeeweek

This month, in addition to our regular newsletter, we wanted to share an update (🔗 in comments) about the political events that took place last week, and on a cheerier note more about #RefugeeWeek Migrants, people seeking asylum and refugees are NOT strangers! 🧡

Planning for Refugee Week is underway! On 20th June we will be hosting an event at the Walthamstow Trades Hall. Are you a local DJ, poet & spoken word artist? Want to be involved & raise awareness about migrant justice? Get in touch: events@wfma.org.uk Together we can defeat hate! 🧡 #migrants

Starmer proudly announced that 24,000 migrants have been removed from UK since Labour took office. Being tough on migration & increasing the number of deportations affects the most marginalised people, those who have no other option. When will the message get through that we need safe routes?

Really looking forward to joining this event tonight with Faiza Shaheen and @zoejardiniere.bsky.social - for what promises to be an important discussion about our flawed immigration siren and how it’s letting so many people down. 🧡 #migrants

We’re excited to share this event taking place Thursday 27th March: Caribbean Labour Solidarity are hosting a public meeting and book launch: 'The Legacy of Slavery and the Case for Reparations' with social activist, Luke Daniels & local historian & WFMA trustee, Peter Ashan.

@migrantvoice.bsky.social conference: The media vilify & dehumanise people seeking asylum, but miss the impt stories about the cost of migration - from the extortionate cost of visas, the cost or healthcare, the exploitative work practices that the vast majority of migrants are forced to endure.

Happy 15th Anniversary to @migrantvoice.bsky.social Really excited to be at what looks like a amazing conference.

People seeking asylum and #refugees need access to #SafeRoutes. Solidarity with migrants everywhere. #NoHumanIsIllegal

Refugees make up less than 1% of the UK population. And guess what: they are NOT the 1% who drain our resources! We will be repeating this time and again: seeking asylum is a human right NOT a crime.
