Meet Ali. His team are working to provide tents, blankets and other essentials to refugees on Lesvos. With arrivals back to 2015 levels, the islands are a breaking point. Please support the emergency fundraiser: facebook.com/donate/6673724…

There are hundreds of children trapped in camps on Greek islands. This summer 3 of these children attempted suicide & 17 self-harmed. While governments argue & avoid responsibility, children are being driven to desperation. bit.ly/2kBoqo1

4 years ago we responded to a photo of the body of a small boy on a Turkish beach because Local & National Governments, the EU & UN and the Corporate World failed to do so. Tomorrow in #London at the #GLG19 Meeting we will be finalising our #collaborations for the next 6 months

Salvage season is over but the job of getting the gear to the people who need it is ongoing, but luckily, heather prgs was on hand to help move our tent/sleeping bag mountain. We also filled "Nelson VANdela" to drive to @LE_Soldarity from where they will be delivered to #Paris

I hate to be grim, but it's winter and the goal is "keep asylum seekers from freezing to death". ❄️⛺️🧥👖❄️ It's hard to do that when Facebook deactivates your page without warning, taking away a key comms channel. DM us if you can help our partners restore their page!

The best news. Paris Refugee Ground Support PRGS and MARDi keep their home at the Landy Sauvage squat in #Paris for this winter. This is brilliant news for the estimated 3500 refugees living on the streets who rely on these Voluntary Groups for shelter, warmth and medical needs.

Thank you for sharing Melissa Martin ❤️With the support of family, starting over in a new country is made that bit easier. Many more refugees are dreaming of their chance to reunite with loved ones – the UK gov can make this happen by maintaining safe, legal routes to sanctuary.

⬇️🍰 Taken the night before another crucial family reunion After making the dangerous journey from Syria to Greece, a 17 yr old boy was finally reunited with his uncle this week ❤️ For refugees, reaching loved ones in the UK is a first step towards rebuilding their futures

Approximately 17% of these children are unaccompanied or separated from their families – putting them at a heightened risk of danger and exploitation. They desperately need a way out, and hope for reuniting with their loved ones.

We have enjoyed working with Angus and with his friends Herts For Refugees on many occasions and without this kind of support from like-minded people and groups, we simply could not continue to do our humanitarian work for #Refugees in #Paris
