Heads up: Refugee Week (UK)

Quick heads up (a little late, I’m afraid): this week is Refugee Week in the UK! Lots of events going on around the country. Check out the details here to see what’s going on near you:

Yesterday I went to see this film: http://www.almostadult.co.uk/almostadult/index.html

which I cannot recommend highly enough – it details the exploitation, loneliness and destitution that faces some asylum seekers who come to the UK, in the story of two young women seeking refugee status.
