Child Refugees of Calais: Day of Action
Start: Tuesday, October 24, 2017•12:00 PM
End: Tuesday, October 24, 2017• 2:00 PM
This Tuesday it will be one year since the Calais ‘Jungle’ was demolished and thousands of refugees were displaced. At that time, thanks to pressure from people like you, the Government successfully transferred 750 child refugees from France to Britain. We need to keep the pressure up, and repeat this success.
There are still hundreds of unaccompanied child refugees living in Calais. They live in the woods with minimal provisions and sanitation, they have the constant threat of police violence and traffickers.
This is what will happen on the day:
12pm: Meet at George V statue (opposite Parliament), where we will be joined by the Citizens of the World Choir.
1pm: Head in to Parliament to meet with your MP (if you can, please get in touch with your MP beforehand so they know you're coming).
we look forward to seeing you there.
