As we face the grim reality of supporting refugee families in UK via Community Sponsorship in finding a home once the 2yr commitment from their original landlord expires, we will join Citizens UK at this Housing Summit. We need affordable, social housing. Join us!

We are delighted Helen Hayes 💙🌹 has been re-elected as our MP. From day 1, now 7 years ago, Helen has supported our work of #CommunitySponsorship, speaking at events, representing us in Parliament. We look forward to continuing our work with her passion and support for refugees.


Lovely meeting prospective volunteers this evening. Small, significant steps towards reviving our work with new people and a new scheme: “Communities for Afghans”. Grateful to Abigail our Lambeth Citizens organiser for coming to support.
