The Hostile Environment makes it impossible to ensure equitable access to the coronavirus vaccine.
That’s why it’s so important that @OxfordCity @haringeycouncil @BristolCouncil are standing up for their communities and calling for #VaccinesForAll.

Primary care has always been free regardless of immigration status, but most people without status aren't registered with a GP.
@DHSCgovuk must go further so that everyone can access the Covid-19 vaccine, regardless of immigration status. #VaccinesForAll

“All the injustice I suffered, maybe it’s worth it, to show people there is something positive to take from all the suffering. I just hope that soon people can see us & we can finally say we’re not invisible.”
An important & welcome milestone. Solidarity.

Happy Christmas! It's been a hard year, we hope you can connect with loved ones today, even if you can't be together.
What a year! Today's our final food distribution of 2020. We've packed nearly 5,000 bags and supported more than 500 individuals and families. Thank you everyone who has made it possible! Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!

No one should be punished for rough sleeping.
@pritipatel & @RobertJenrick
we urge you to scrap new rule which could see non-UK nationals threatened w/ deportation for being homeless. It's a dangerous policy & part of the inhumane #HostileEnvironment bit.ly/3fFcwkP
Thank you @Gloscricket!

My question to the Prime Minister today: "Isn't it wrong that a hard-working, law-abiding family like this is being forced by the current arrangements into destitution?"
It was great having @Bishopviv1 visit our Drop-In today to speak to our members and volunteers. Here is Bishop Viv supporting our Borderlands 50,000 appeal!
