CALAIS LIGHT
Our aim is to promote social inclusion for refugees. We send volunteer convoys to France to assist charities giving practical support to refugees and the displaced. We source donations of food, quality clothing and toiletries to meet refugees' basic needs. Our Befriender Hubs teach UK refugees English language skills to speed social integration. We try to shift public opinion towards compassion.
