At the end of 2018 around 70.8 million people were forcibly displaced across the world. Of these, 25.9 million were refugees, whilst 41.3 million were internally displaced within their country of origin. The asylum system in the UK is fraught with problems that compound the suffering of refugees and people seeking asylum. 

I am the granddaughter of a war refugee; 80 years since WW2 and worldwide, be it due to war, human rights violations, the environment, economic hardship, or political turmoil, families are still being fragmented and livelihoods shattered. Please join me in supporting a charity whose work is so crucial in the UK and worldwide; donate and sponsor my recital. It is time we demand and push for an asylum system that is fair, humane, and effective – so that refugees can get the protection they need and have the possibility to rebuild their lives. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe and once you donate your money is sent directly to the charity. 

Thank you so much in advance!
