At Migrant Help, we’ve been supporting vulnerable people—those seeking asylum, refugees, and survivors of modern slavery—for 60 years. Through our Schools Programme, we offer engaging, thought-provoking workshops to dispel some of the myths and help students understand the challenges faced by people seeking refuge and how they can offer support. 🎓 Join our FREE Virtual Schools Conference on 16 October, 15:30 – 17:00 to learn how our workshops can make your school a more welcoming space. 👉 Register now: https://lnkd.in/ed-3TdA3 For more information, reach out to our Schools Lead, Jonathan, at schools@migranthelpuk.org. #RefugeesWelcome #SupportPeopleSeekingAsylum #SchoolsProgramme

A gang exploited 16 vulnerable Czech victims, forcing them to work at a McDonald's branch in Cambridgeshire and a bakery supplying major UK supermarkets. Despite clear signs of modern slavery and exploitation, the abuse went undetected by McDonald's and the supermarkets for more than four years. This heartbreaking case is a stark reminder that slavery can be found everywhere—though, unlike this case, it is often hidden. There are around 100,000 victims in the UK alone. If more of us become aware of the signs of modern slavery and how to report it, more victims can be rescued from harm, and we can weaken the criminal networks behind this exploitation.

Children and young adults have often not yet fully formed their opinions around issues of displaced people—views that, once formed, may stay with them for a lifetime. Our School Programme helps support you in challenging the mindset of young people in the UK and promoting positive discussion around these issues. The program aims to dispel myths and encourage thought discussions about welcoming people from outside the UK through tailored workshops and assemblies in schools, catering to various age groups. #RefugeesWelcome #SupportPeopleSeekingAsylum #SchoolsProgramme

In the 1960s, thousands of South Asian families moved to West Yorkshire for jobs in mills and factories, helping to rebuild post-war Britain. While the contributions of men are well documented, the women's stories have often been overlooked. A new and important book, 'Our Heritage 2', aims to change this by highlighting the experiences of immigrant women from Batley, West Yorkshire, specifically those of Gujarati Indian Muslim heritage. These women faced language barriers, harsh weather, and racism as they adapted to a new life. Their strength and resilience are now being rightfully celebrated in this crucial work, ensuring that their inspiring stories are finally shared. 🎉 #CelebrateImmigration #HiddenHistories #ImmigrantStories
