Story
As part of our Pride Campaign this year, Silverback Films has chosen to support Bristol Pride Without Borders. We will be running a number of in-house events to raise money and awareness for the charity, including:
OFFICE BAKE SALE - 7 June, all day
'TINNIES AND TIE DYE' - 22 June, 15:00 onwards
ZINE DEADLINE - 30 June
PRIDE PARADE - 8 July
The charity helps LGBTQ+ people live in safety as asylum seekers and new refugees. They meet basic needs, organise queer friendly events, provide weekly support groups, and peer to peer support. Most importantly they carry out casework to support people's asylum claim based on gender and sexual orientation.
Their hard work has resulted in 35 people securing their refugee status and enabled them to live freely in safety.
After winning his court case with the support of PWB, Mohammed said: "I'm really thankful for PWB who gave me the confidence to live openly. Being accepted as a refugee by the courts has totally changed my life. Before I had a lot of stress and uncertainty, but since the day I received my status I have felt calm. I feel I have the right to live my life my own way."
PWB provides basic needs as well as long term support. Give to them today!
