City of Sanctuary

We’re building a movement of welcome across the UK. From community groups to councils, schools to libraries, these vibrant networks provide support, dignity and welcome to refugees and people seeking sanctuary. With your support, we can make these networks even stronger.

The London Borough of Islington has officially been named a Borough of Sanctuary for refugees, migrants and people seeking asylum.
