Wolverhampton City of Sanctuary support for asylum seekers and refugees in our city

Story

One of the high points of the year for the City of Sanctuary Community is upcoming festive season. We always celebrate the great religious festivals together and at Christmas we usually  celebrate with a joyous party, hosted by our partners at "ChadMark" Church, Penn Fields but for the past 2 years big parties have not been possible.

There is a risk that families and individuals will face the coming festive season alone and without the usual treats to cheer them up. 

SO...we are asking for your support to help us, along with our friends at 'ChadMark, to give families, children and people living on their own some modest gifts, by way of gift vouchers, and to arrange some festive visits. We hope that everyone in our community of in the region of 300 sanctuary seekers will benefit in some small, but important, way.

Please, lend your support to this appeal to bring Christmas cheer to all of these adults and children who are so far from home. Every little will help.
