Thank you!

This year's Refugee Week was our biggest and best yet! With over 850 events taking place around the country we came together in our thousands to celebrate everything refugees bring to the UK. The festival has grown by 20% this year, so THANK YOU and congratulations to every event organiser, artist, teacher, volunteer and supporter who gave their time and energy: you made it happen. 

Your highlights

We hope you've enjoyed some rest over the past week. We would welcome any pictures or videos of your personal Refugee Week highlights, particularly your Simple Acts, so please do email these to me.

Refugee Week 2019 Survey

If you organised an event, we'd love to learn more about your experiences: what went well, what the challenges were, and your suggestions for the future.

Here is a link to our Refugee Week Survey, which takes 10-15 minutes to complete. Your feedback is so important in helping us to evaluate and tell the story of this amazing festival and make sure Refugee Week has an even greater impact in years to come. 

Please send us your thoughts as soon as you can, and no later than Friday 20 July. 

In the media

It has been amazing to see so many regional and national press stories about Refugee Week. Please send us links to any local media coverage so that we can feature this on our In the Media page on the Refugee Week website.  

And finally...

Don't forget to Join the Movement! This is our seventh and final Simple Act, and a great way to stay engaged all year round. From campaigning to volunteering, there are some specific ways you can show your support beyond Refugee Week. Please join us and share with your networks.

Thank you again for all your support!
