Refugee Week 2025,will run from 16 to 22 June. The theme will be
Community as a Superpower
Community is the incredible everyday. Ordinary and extraordinary. Simple acts of shared generosity. Kindness multiplied to become an unstoppable force!
“We can begin the process of making community wherever we are. We can begin by sharing a smile, a warm greeting, a bit of conversation; by doing a kind deed or by acknowledging kindness offered to us.”- Gloria Jean Watkins better known as ‘bell hooks’.
Communities can bring people together. Bridging divides and offering support. Spaces of resilience and places for healing.
This Refugee Week everyone is invited to spend time with friends and build new connections in and beyond our neighbourhoods. From communal meals and open air film screenings, to football matches and music making, let’s share the feelings of welcome and belonging. Listening, learning, laughing together.
