If you could change something, what would it be?

Thursday 24 February 2010, 1-5pm, Refugee Council, Brixton

What makes you angry? What would you like to make better for your community? What is your dream? If you can passionately answer these questions, come along to the Refugee Council’s Refugee Empowerment Project open day to find out how this one year campaigning project could help you effect change in your community.

Funded by Trust for London, this project will improve the campaigning skills and capacity of 18 London based refugees and asylum seekers, and the refugee community organisations they are involved in, through the provision of training, mentoring and other forms of specialist support.

With support from Refugee Council and an assigned mentor, recruited individuals will work together to develop their own campaign action plan to be delivered by their RCO, and make a real difference in their communities.

To reserve a place (for London-based RCOs only), please email Hannah.petros@refugeecouncil.org.uk by Thursday 17 February 2011, or for more information call Penny Mclean on 020 7346 1052.
