Story

Maddi and I are going to swim 4km around a (cold and murky) lake in Exmoor to raise crucial funds needed to help a displaced Syrian family settle in a welcoming village in Devon. 

The Georgeham community group has been accepted through the government’s Community Sponsorship Scheme to give one family in need the same chance of peace, freedom and security that lots of us enjoy.  

We would love it if you could support this family by donating here.

About the charity

We are a group of local volunteers, working together to welcome a refugee family into our community. Our aim is to provide the type of friendship and practical support that anyone would hope to have if they were forced, under such circumstances, to start over in a new and unfamiliar place.
