As you may be aware, this week is Refugee Week (20th – 26th June 2011) and this year it is the 60th anniversary of the Refugee Convention.

To mark this, Freshwinds have commissioned 3 short films featuring 3 different experiences of refugees living here in Birmingham who are accessing our services. The films were produced by Freshwinds Staff with refugees themselves taking the lead on direction and content so they can share their stories with you in the way they felt most comfortable.

They can be accessed here: http://www.youtube.com/freshwindscharity

Please do spend the time to watch these short films and please do forward this link to anyone who you feel might be interested.

Full story and feature article to follow shortly.
