Refugee and asylum-seeking women can be vulnerable and isolated\, n ot knowing what their rights are or how to exercise those rights.\n\nRefug ee women have to overcome many barriers to accessing services and support and even when asylum seeking women have been able to get support they face being moved on at short notice to another area where they have no support networks. The women engage with us at an important turning point in their lives where they have left an abusive or conflict situation and are tryin g to deal with the huge change to their lives that this brings about at th e same time they are trying to navigate the complex asylum process.\nhttps ://www.refugeewomenconnect.org.uk/\n\nSisBis\nSisBis is a collective that puts on parties that aim to be inclusive and full to the brim with good vi bes and good music.
