Speaking from Experience Leila Usmani – Cardiff Engagement and Training Officer leila@dpia.org.uk and Mohanad, Volunteer Sanctuary Speaker

City of Sanctuary City of Sanctuary is a movement committed to building a culture of hospitality and welcome, especially for people seeking sanctuary from war and persecution. Our network of local groups includes boroughs, towns and cities across the UK and Ireland, all committed to building this culture of welcome across every sphere of society. Wherever people seeking sanctuary go, we want them to feel safe and find people who will welcome them, understand why they are here and recognise the contributions people seeking sanctuary make in our communities.
