Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Welcoming a refugee family from the Syrian conflict to Wendover · 13 November 2019

Citizens UK is the UK’s biggest, most diverse, and most effective people-powered alliance. Together, we make change on the issues that matter, from campaigning for zebra crossings on dangerous roads, to reforming the immigration system, to the Living Wage campaign.

Story

WRAP RIDE: On Saturday and Sunday 8th and 9th February we will  be trying to ride the +2,500 miles from Aleppo in Syria to Wendover......on ten exercise bikes on the Manor Waste outside Budgens provided by the RAF.

Please come and join us on the day; cycle a few miles, sponsor our riders, or just come and lend your support.

Wendover resettlement assistance project "WRAP" is a group of local people who have come together to help bring a vulnerable Syrian refugee family to live in our community and support them in integrating into life here.  We operate under the Government's Community Sponsorship scheme and are partners with Sponsor Refugees which is part of UK charity Citizens UK, registered charity number 1107264.

We need money to pay for the family's resettlement and for English language teaching and skills training to help them settle into our society and become self reliant.  As a group made up entirely of volunteers, any donations you make will go directly to helping the sponsored family.
