#RefugeeWeek #RefugeesWelcome #SupportPeopleSeekingAsylum
This courage, in all its forms, deserves to be recognised and celebrated, and we can’t wait for June, when we’ll come together to celebrate and connect through the courage that lives differently within every one of us.
Discover how you can take part this Refugee Week here: www.refugeeweek.org
Courage is different from person to person, but at Migrant Help we witness extreme amounts of courage every single day. The strength, bravery and resilience shown by those rebuilding lives stolen from them—often in the most challenging of circumstances—never fails to take our breath away.
Image shows the word 'Courage' 6 times in orange, with a Refugee Week logo at the bottom right!
Looking forward to Refugee Week (15–21 June 2026), we’ve been reflecting on this year’s theme of ‘Courage’ and what it means to us at Migrant Help.

Blending Palestinian folklore with real testimonies from children in Gaza, A Grain of Sand is a moving story of resilience, hope, and the right of children to simply be children.

This powerful one‑woman show follows Renad, an 11‑year‑old Gazan girl embarking on a dangerous journey to find her family, carrying with her only the echoes of her grandmother’s stories and the spark of her own imagination.
If you’re in the Glasgow area next Friday (13 March) or Saturday (14 March), be sure to check out @goodchancetheatre.bsky.social’s production of 'A Grain of Sand' at the Citizens Theatre!
Explore the images for inspiration and ideas to get started! And don’t forget to share what you do on social media using #SimpleActs and #RefugeeWeek.

However you choose to take part — by organising an event, joining one hosted by others, or taking action on your own — you can be part of a movement that shows how small steps can lead to big change.
For anyone unfamiliar, Simple Acts are small, everyday actions anyone can take to create connections and support refugees.
Sir Quentin Blake — the beloved cartoonist, caricaturist, illustrator and children’s writer — has illustrated over 300 books, including nearly 20 by Roald Dahl. Now, his bright and playful drawings will be bringing this year’s Simple Acts campaign to life!
Super exciting news!
@refugeeweek.bsky.social has collaborated with the marvellous Quentin Blake for Refugee Week 2026 (15–21 June) and this year’s theme of Courage.
Now two weeks into both holy periods, however you’re observing this season — through fasting, prayer, quiet, or small acts of kindness — we’re wishing you peace, clarity and connection.
For everyone, observing or not, what’s been on your mind to reflect on lately?
#Ramadan #Lent #Reflection
In a time of polarisation and a sea of skewed, false and hurtful narratives, this reflection can help us slow down, listen more deeply, and act with care and compassion.
As Ramadan and Lent continue side by side, many people across the country are pausing and looking inward — recentring on compassion, truth and community.

For refugees and people seeking asylum, a bike is so much more than a way to get from A to B — it’s a gateway to independence, opportunity, community, and access to essential services.
