On today's show we are focusing on a peaceful and meaningful response to some of the undesirable reactions to support that was recently shown to refugees housed in Shrewsbury. Some direct responses were ugly but there was also a huge amount of positivity too.
AL is in the town square speaking to members of Shropshire Supports Refugees and Stand Up To Racism. These guys were set up to have healthy discussions about the situations across the globe, positive ways people are trying to help and drum up further support for the effort.
We speak to founder of Shropshire Supports Refugees Amanda Jones and fellow supporters. These people have contributed so much, offering services to better the lives of the people who have fled literal war zones for safety here in Shrewsbury. From being in a position to advocate for these survivors, to building language and cultural bridges which is seen as a truly priceless resource when communicating with families. We have some really insightful discussions within this podcast.
There are so many ways we can all help out. By visiting the Shropshire Supports Refugees website you can find out all the information you need, here's the link - https://www.shropshiresupportsrefugees.org/
