HOST Nottingham

There has been a lot happening since our last post. It has been a year since we hosted our first guest and thanks to our volunteers we have been able to provide secure accommodation for over thirteen destitute asylum seekers in Nottingham . However  there is still a significant number of people in Nottingham who have neither the right to earn a living, nor any entitlement to welfare benefits, not even a roof over their heads.  The recent  Homelessness and Hope   Commission report by Citizen UK revealed the real scale of destitution within Nottingham. With the Nottingham and Nott'm Refugee Forum regularly supports around seventy destitute people per month, at HOST we're looking for volunteers to generously open their homes to help alleviate the number of destitute asylum seekers in Nottingham.  In the news at a national level this week, UK Feminista lead a coalition of women and organisations to lobby parliament on Wednesday 24th October, calling for gender equality.
