A working group of local authorities, migrant and refugee specialist agencies and the WM Funders Network have been considering how the range of services that support migrant and refugee inclusion can be improved and grown. We know that there are opportunities to better recognise and share good practice across the region and across sectors to encourage more investment in the things we know can make a difference.

This event will cover a broad set of issues across crime and community safety, physical health, mental health, safeguarding and support for refugee, asylum seekers and migrant vulnerable children, young people, families and adults.

We are inviting independent funders, public bodies (local authorities, health, police) and VCS agencies working on migration issues to to participate and contribute to opportunities for joint action.
