What do the terms “refugee”, “asylum speaker”, “immigrant” and “migrant” mean? Some of them have been used a lot in the media lately, often inaccurately.
Rebecca will give us the facts, including statistics, about the situation here in the East of England. She’ll also be able to tell us about some of the refugees and asylum seekers’ stories.
We’ll make a collection for the forum’s fund that benefits people suffering hardship, as well as the usual raffle.
We’ll be in the Hall at the Centre – press the buzzer at the front door for access.
