What a brilliant event! The Whitla Hall was buzzing and it was great to chat with the @IMA_CitRights and @nihecommunity teams who were there to give advice and provide support to people who need it.
We're at the Big Sanctuary Event today in Whitla Hall, Queens University. Come speak to our friendly staff. We’re here with other organisations offering advice and support for migrants and refugees like the @MigrantCentreNI, @migranthelp, @niexecutive and many others #EUcitizens

The sanctuary scheme is a lifeline to many women who would otherwise not be safe to stay in their homes. But there’s much more we can and should be doing to help anyone affected by domestic abuse who is at risk of homelessness. Glad to see this story in the news today
A domestic violence victim who said she slept with a hammer beside her bed for protection has described a scheme that installed new cameras, locks and security lights at her home as a lifeline. bbc.in/3T8oJDc
