Cornwall is mobilising.
From the border with England to the north, to way down in the wildness of the west, we're taking action in countless ways across our extraordinary county to offer sanctuary to those people, adults, children, grandparents, young couples, and individuals caught up and forced to abandon their homes seek sanctuary somewhere across Europe and the Middle East. It's hard to imagine what it must be like to be as desperate, and how much you have to hope for some compassion in others, as you look for safety. There are a million ways offering sanctuary: if you're not sure how, and you want to join in, you're in exactly the right place.
Have a look below: click on an image for more info, including the clip from one of the events we have run this year. There's always something we can do. And there's always hope. :)
This event and this website was born of the Cornwall Refugee Resettlement Network. You can find out more here.
