As members of our community that we’re in touch with every week, we hope you can really see the importance of kindness, inclusion and community in everything we do at St Margaret’s House. We believe everyone should feel welcomed, valued and able to take part, regardless of their background or circumstances. Inclusion remains at the heart of our work and our spaces and we are proud to be part of such a diverse and vibrant community.

Refugee Wee k will take place this June (Monday 15 to Sunday 21) and we are delighted to be celebrating with a range of events and activities across St Margaret’s House. This is a UK-wide festival that celebrates the strength, creativity and contributions of refugees and people seeking sanctuary. It also encourages greater understanding of the experiences of those forced to leave their homes due to war, persecution or conflict, while recognising the importance of compassion, solidarity and openness within our communities.
