Promoting Community Sponsorship in Parliament

As part of this year’s Refugee Week (17 th to 23 rd June), Helen Hayes MP is hosting an event at the House of Commons to promote Community Sponsorship of Refugees among her fellow parliamentarians.

The event will also call for resettlement of refugees to be extended beyond 2020 as part of the #ExtendtheWelcome campaign and for more refugees to receive a warm welcome in our communities. The event is led by, and all speakers will be, refugees.

Anyone connected to Community Sponsorship groups or interested in the scheme is welcome to attend.

Please register via this link. It is vital to register - non-registered guests may be refused entry by security.

And please, do write to your MP and urge them to attend this important event. You can download a template letter here.
