Give a few hours to the Refugee Welcome Picnic - everyone is welcome and no experience is needed.
🇬🇧 England, United Kingdom862 views
Every year the Refugee Welcome Picnic brings together 317 neighbors in Birmingham. I help organize it with 12 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for stewarding, first-aid support and clean-up. Shifts are two to three hours long and you can pick the one that suits you. Food and drinks are provided for all volunteers.
It's a long-standing tradition, and our goal is to keep it free. No experience is necessary - we'll brief everyone at the start of the day.
If you can come with a friend, even better. Please say in the comments which shift works for you.
Thank you so much.

You're not alone, Evelyn. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Hyderabad this morning. Thinking of Birmingham.
Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care
Hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Austin
So sorry you're going through this. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. After 30 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Stay strong, Evelyn. Looking forward to the next update. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
Sending strength, Evelyn. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Birmingham
Sending love. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Birmingham

wishing you peace, Evelyn. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Christchurch.
stay strong, Evelyn. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Birmingham.
Rooting for you. Great idea, hope you get there. We're a small family in Nizamabad but we're thinking of you. All the best
