#GCPSIGNED
Getting involved with campaigns and activism is a big part of what we do at GCP.  Check out some of the campaigns, joint letters and petitions we've signed recently:

  • BID Detention's call for the urgent release of people held in prison under immigration powers 
  • AVID's letter to the Immigration Minister and Shadhow Housing Secretary highlighting the risks if housing vulnerable asylum-seekers in crowded barracks where social distancing is impossible, and urging them to implement community-based alternatives, to avoid further harm
  • Joint letter from Care4Calais, Refugee Action, Stand Up To Racism, Legacy of Windrush Descendants and more calling for the Home Office to stop plans to house asylum seekers in Yarl's Wood camp

integration network joint letter 

Following the sad loss of a young man's life in hotel accommodation in Glasgow, GCP and our colleagues from other Integration Networks in the City have jointly written to the Secretary of State asking for an urgent investigation into the decisions taken to move asylum community members into hotel accommodation during the Covid-19 lockdown. View the full letter below.
