The Welcome Series
A new series exploring how a city can truly welcome people new to the UK and what the process of being new is really like. Made by our Soap Box Coventry group and funded by Coventry Council.
EXPERTS BY EXPERIENCE
There is no one better placed to speak on the experiences of people speaking sanctuary than those who have lived it and those who are still navigating complex and hostile ayslum and immigration systems. Our range of film series are designed to better educate cross sector professionals and the general public on what it’s really like for so many in the UK.
Use Your Voice
We were commissioned by Refugee Council to run our Use Your Voice programme throughout the pandemic and together the group created a series of short films to better educate and give personal insight into the experiences of people seeking sanctuary in the UK across all areas of life. These films have been shared with parliamentarians, senior civil servants and the Home Office, as well as a range of stakeholders, from other refugee NGOs to medical professional bodies. Please watch and share.
