At the recent Refugee Campaigns Day at the University of Glasgow, we ran a workshop on the UK asylum system.  How it works (or doesn’t), the barriers people face as they go through it, and simple practical actions that supporters can take to help people through.  This was all based on our brand new Toolkit.

We only had an hour to the run the session so it was a bit of a whistle-stop tour, but we managed to thoroughly depress people about how brutal the system really is, but then hopefully left them invigorated and determined to get involved and help people out in the spirit of mutual aid and self-help.

Independence Live live-streamed the workshop, and thanks to them you can watch the whole workshop online!
