Kolbassia Haoussou, director at Freedom from Torture & a refugee: “The men, women and children who come to the UK seeking sanctuary – just as I did – want nothing more than safety and the chance to rebuild their lives as part of strong and vibrant communities."

They tried students and they tried care workers, but that wasn't enough. Now they're coming for families.

My impassioned thoughts on today's sickening family reunion announcement.

🚨TODAY MPs are debating the refugee citizenship ban.

This ban made it nearly impossible for many refugees to become British citizens.

This affects our neighbours, colleagues, and friends.

📢Your MP needs to hear from you NOW:

Today, on International Day in Support of Victims of Torture, we stand in solidarity with all survivors of torture and trauma.

At Young Roots, we know that many young refugees and asylum seekers carry experiences of deep pain and trauma – often in silence.

Today was a chance to reset the conversation on migration and community after years of failed policies. We need solutions that foster resilience, belonging, and safety—especially after last summer’s racist riots—not a race to the bottom that throws our communities under the bus.
