An afternoon of stories, connection, and justice.
A special Weaving Trust event hosted in partnership with Peaceful Borders, bringing together members of the Bloomsbury congregation, Neighbours for Justice partners, and institutions from Westminster Citizens.
Through simple sharing, storytelling, and listening, we’ll deepen relationships across our diverse communities and explore how we might work together for justice – especially around the challenges faced by refugees and people seeking asylum.
This is not a panel – it’s a conversation. Everyone is welcome, and everyone’s story matters.
