Nationality and Borders Bill Teach Out
When: 4th August 2021, 6:00pm
Where: Online
What: A panel of experts discussing the new Immigration Bill proposed by Priti Patel and the Home Office.
As part of our summer of celebrations, to mark the 10 year anniversary of the launch of Bristol as a City of Sanctuary, we are organising a series of ‘Teach Outs’ to continue the conversations about some of the issues that impact those seeking sanctuary and wider communities wanting to welcome people to our city.
Our third and final Teach Out will be speaking to experts and activists about the impacts of the new Immigration Bill on people and it expands the Hostile Environment. Speakers to be announced soon.
Join us on zoom to discuss this issue and ask our panelists your questions!

Sponsored Walk for Sanctuary Transport Fund
When: 14th August 2021
Where: Around Bristol, meet at Guinea Street
What: A sponsored walk around Bristol to raise money for Bristol City of Sanctuary’s Transport Fund
On the 14th of August, we will do a sponsored walk to raise money for our Sanctuary Transport Fund. The fund has been set up to provide free bus tickets to people seeking sanctuary, focusing on people who are destitute and those considered most vulnerable in the city.
The walk will be around those places in Bristol that are particularly associated with
slavery and the slave trade, upon which so much of Bristol’s wealth has been built. Further details to follow, but please note that this plan is contingent on lockdown easing.
You can donate directly here, or set up a fundraiser here. If you would like to join the walk or get more information, please email [email protected]
