Refugees Welcome in Haslemere

Offer to home 50 refugee families

Why is this important?

Aylan, the toddler who drowned fleeing Syria, was just three years old. His town was under attack by Isis. His five year old brother and his mum also died trying to reach safety.

Yet our prime minister has just said ‘we won't take any more refugees’. He thinks that most of us don't care. But 38 Degrees members do care. We don't want Britain to be the kind of country that turns its back as people drown in their desperation to flee places like Syria.

So let's stand up for Britain's long tradition of helping refugees fleeing war. Let's show the Prime Minister that we, the people of the UK, are proud to do our part and provide refuge to people in their hour of need.

It's fantastic that we've already got 76 people signed up to the petition in just over 24 hours! A friend and I have spent the afternoon brain storming ideas to see if we can do anything more of immediate help and have come up with an idea to send 'Bags of Hope' to the refugee children arriving daily in Kos. If you would like to donate, please see our new facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/haslemeregiftofhope
All the best,
Emily
