Refugee Week 2020 takes place from 15-21 June and this year we will be doing things a little differently. Rather than have a physical event to celebrate the people we work with and thank our supporters, we are inviting anyone who likes a good quiz to join us for a special Refugee Week quiz via Zoom on Thursday 18 June from 7.30-9pm. Please email Martin (msimmonds@suffolkrefugee.org.uk) to receive an invitation with Zoom link.

During the week we will also focus on giving voice to some of the refugees in Suffolk who have been carrying out vital, unsung work in key worker roles during the coronavirus crisis, from care workers to hospital cleaners to community supermarkets. Look out for more in the Ipswich Star and on Radio Suffolk. We will also be creating a virtual wall where our clients can express their interpretation of the Refugee Week theme of ‘Imagine’. And we will be curating, on our social media pages, a daily selection of refugee-themed films throughout the week. Please do get in touch if you have any comments, messages or feedback!
