There are over 100 groups across the UK working to make their communities welcoming to people seeking sanctuary through the City of Sanctuary network. This workshop will introduce the network and encourage participants to think about what they can do to create a culture of welcome in their own communities.

Ben is streams & partnership manager for City of Sanctuary UK, an umbrella organisation that supports the development of groups across the UK intended to welcome people seeking sanctuary. His work supports groups across the country in universities, local authorities, schools, theatres and many other places.
