Story

Amiqus are lacing back up the runners again in preparation for this year's Edinburgh Marathon Festival towards the end of May. Between the team, they'll be covering over 100 miles in aid of the Scottish Refugee Council.

Scottish Refugee Council work with people who have fled horrific situations around the world and come from countries where conflict is rife and human rights abuses common.

When people arrive in Scotland, a new journey begins. The UK’s asylum system is tough and takes its toll on individuals and families. Settling into a foreign country and a whole new system can be disorientating and challenging.

Scottish Refugee Council's work to support people rebuilding their lives here unites a movement of people across Scotland and beyond who believe in the importance of solidarity with people forced to flee their homes.

Help us to fundraise and help the Scottish Refugee Council change lives for the better. Your donation really will make a welcome and positive difference to families who've experienced the worst life can throw at them. At a time when we're all facing our own challenges at home, let's make Scotland feel like home to as many people as possible.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
