A great final co-production session with clients, volunteers and staff at @oasiscdf.bsky.social yesterday! We are in the final stages of putting together a new 10-year strategy having spent the last year consulting with everyone involved in the organisation.

Excited to launch soon!

Happy Monday! Lovely to finish Monday run in the light! #5.30amclub

We need stronger, concrete action from the Welsh Government that makes real improvements to the lives of people seeking sanctuary. Our statement 👇🏽👇🏽

The UK Government's moves this week to restrict citizenship for those who arrive by irregular routes, and performative arrests and deportations threaten and dehumanise people in the UK and threatens the vision of Wales as a Nation of Sanctuary.

This is truly shocking…

If you can manage to give us a little sponsor, it'd help with the early starts 😀😀

@susietsegay.bsky.social and I are running a 100 mile ultramarathon over 50 hours in June (🤯) and aiming to raise £5k for @oasiscdf.bsky.social.

We had a souper afternoon celebrating the Day of the Soup with Moorland Primary, St Saviour & the One World Choir 💙

Lots of delicious soup was consumed! 😋🥣

Red box containing the words "fight for asylum rights"

We’re still digesting the details of today's Borders Bill. But what we know is these new laws repeat old mistakes: criminalising people seeking safety and putting lives at risk.

We must fight for asylum rights, to force the Government to protect, not punish, people seeking safety.

Social media companies could have helped to prevent riots, police chief says Social media companies could have worked with authorities to prevent misinformation as rioting broke out in the wake of Axel Rudakubana’s horrific attack, the Merseyside Police chief has said. Violent...

Another reason we need a national inquiry into the racist riots of last summer...

Don't miss your chance for the Cardiff Half and to raise money for a fantastic charity 👇👇👇

Chart showing proportion of 25-34-year-olds feeling anxious, by housing costs as a proportion of income (gross of housing benefit, excluding principal repayment): GB, 2018-20

Higher housing costs are linked to worse mental health among 25-34-year-olds.

2018-20, 8 per cent of 25-34-year-olds reported feeling anxious overall, but this varied significantly depending on housing costs.

Welsh Refugee Council staff 'harassed' after Musk shares X post Staff at the charity say some colleagues have had death threats after Musk shared the post on X.

Horrendous that Welsh Refugee Council staff have been smeared and endangered by this deliberate, shameful spreading of misinformation.

Want to help others this Christmas? @oasiscdf.bsky.social is a community centre in the heart of Cardiff providing a warm Welsh welcome to refugees and asylum seekers. If you can spare a couple of quid this festive season, this is an amazing cause 💙 #RefugeesWelcome

This year has seen a rise in violence against migrants & sanctuary seekers.

So, this #InternationalMigrantsDay, we celebrate the invaluable contributions of millions of migrants around the world and send a message: you are welcome here.

Syrian people in the UK deserve the same rights as everyone else: to be able to ask for protection and have their claim considered fairly and individually.

We've written to the Home Office to demand the return of the universal right to seek asylum:

🏚️ Despite almost 14 years of conflict in Syria, hope endures.

As Syrians return to rebuild their lives in shattered communities, UNHCR is there to provide life-saving support and services.

Together, we can help turn hope into action.

Yvette Cooper urged to end ‘cruel’ pause on Syrian asylum decisions Asylum seekers say they are in limbo and charities have expressed ‘deep concern’ as claims paused after Assad regime’s fall

Over 700 organisations have signed a letter to the Home Officer, urging them to keep processing asylum claims by people from Syria.

Through our services we know that the community is fearful about their future here. It's time to reverse this cruel decision.
