What we do?
We work to ensure that Bristol is a City of Sanctuary for all; that it is a safe, inclusive and welcoming city.
- We build upon the amazing work that is already being done across the city, supporting local organisations to deliver services for Refugees and Asylum seekers.
- We work with local schools and colleges to help them become places of welcome for those seeking sanctuary.
- We raise funds for our Bristol City of Sanctuary Transport Fund, which provides bus tickets for destitute asylum seekers and vulnerable refugees.
- We work with local businesses and arts organisations, helping them to explore ways that they can harness the gifts and talents of sanctuary seekers.
- We support the Doctors of the World Safe Surgeries Initiative to ensure GP surgeries across Bristol are safe spaces for everyone.
- We organise events and conferences, celebrating sanctuary within the city whilst also looking at ways to tackle the injustice that can be faced by Refugees and Asylum seekers.
