An unaccompanied 16-year-old Eritrean boy turned up at our youth club this week, just after opening, with some others.
He was a new face so I asked him how long he'd been in the UK and he said: "today".
I said: "what do you mean 'today'?"
He said: "I arrived, just today".

Warsan Shire’s words never more important. Priti Patel’s #Rwanda plans are vicious & grotesque - utterly shameful. Britain is better than this
We’ve joined 150 orgs in calling on the Prime Minister & Home Secretary to scrap their unthinkably cruel plans to ship people seeking refuge to Rwanda. Instead, they must create humane & effective solutions to protect refugees #RefugeesWelcomeimix.org.uk/open-letter-t-pr…
Big thanks to everyone who came along to help sort donations for Afghan families on behalf of us and @1Eid_UK especially to the team from @WE_Empowered. Great to have your energy and help! 🧡🙌🏻✨🙌🏽✨#togetherwecan#unitedtogether
Profoundly moving to witness the power & grace of #LittleAmal
She’s such a compelling symbol for young refugees & by coming to #COP26, she highlights the ways that women & girls are disproportionately impacted by the #ClimateCrisis@WalkWithAmal
I just added my name to this emergency appeal for climate action by Greta, Vanessa, Mitzi, and Dominika. Sign now and share, and they'll deliver our voices directly to governments at the @COP26#climate summit. fb.avaaz.org/campaign/en/cli…

It’s tough picking ourselves up after the heartbreak of losing our beloved @briandonnelly04 but he’d want us to do just that. Prepping aid for Lebanon today with @chwood4refugees ✨🧡✨
