City of Sanctuary Investing in Volunteers! ๐Ÿ‘

Our volunteer team is an absolutely vital part of everything that we do at City of Sanctuary Sheffield.ย ย They are instrumental in both creating welcoming spaces that challenge the hostile environment and empowering people seeking sanctuary to navigate the system as it currently stands.

In this newsletter we have some great news about this volunteer team, an update on our response to the shocking media coverage of migrants crossing the channel in search of safety and the usual ‘what you can do to get involved’ rundown at the end.

Enjoy!
