"Once a week I can leave the camp," says 12-yo old boy from #Afghanistan (on #Lesvos since 1,5 yrs), "today it is sunny and I can walk to LIDL supermarket. Not further. I am always afraid to be stopped by police or someone else." - What do you miss most? "Walking to school."

Today marks one year of the #coronavirus pandemic - a year of disproportionate impact on migrant communities and inaction by Department of Health and Social Care to end the #HostileEnvironment. We stand with 341 organisations to say not another year. We must ensure #VaccinesForAll.
