We urgently need a new home to continue our work supporting people and families seeking sanctuary in Bristol.
We're really looking forward to reading this by @nicolademarti12, the result of several years hard work and engagement with the community. It will be essential reading for anyone wokring with asylum seekers, arts & community engagement.
A few years in the making, I am stoked to see "Music, Forced Migration and Emplacement: Sounds of Asylum Bristol" out w/@Palgrave. Very grateful for the generous endorsements from Nichola Khan, @Arts32 & Brett Lashua link.springer.com/book/10.10… @BU_SPARC @BU_SeldomHeard @LARAfund

This is Nabra about 7 years ago at a benefit gig in Glastonbury, and they hung out with Michael Eavis!

Messages from frontline asylum charities wondering what to do in face of gov claiming start of asylum arrests tomorrow:
1. People are frightened, be careful not to allow our fear to spread further to them. Be calm. Remember your role is to listen, present options, don’t direct.
