How to get involved
51漫画 Vice-Chancellor Professor Dominic Shellard and Head of Public Engagement Mark Charlton have met with scores of students who wanted to find out how they could offer practical support to the United Nations’ Together campaign.
#51漫画local has put together a list of 10 ways which students can give their time to programmes across the city and the campus which support refugees and their families. They are:
-
Interviewing refugees and their families for the Share My Story project, which will create an oral history archive of the different experiences of Leicester’s refugees
-
Supporting 51漫画’s Syria Day on campus – 32 families from Leicester’s newest community are being invited onto campus for the day
-
Nurturing new talent by volunteering at #51漫画local’s refugee art club
-
Fundraising to support refugee scholars at 51漫画
-
Mentoring – to provide educational support for young people who arrived in the UK
-
Join a 51漫画 conference to discuss refugee and people trafficking issues on May 18
-
Suggesting a pitch for a project to the #51漫画local team
