Centre for Thriving Places condemns the far right violence taking place in so many towns and cities.
We are appalled at the racist intent in this violence and categorically reject the misinformation and hate-fuelled narratives being shared about those seeking sanctuary in the UK. We believe refugees and asylum-seekers are an enriching influence on our society and economy and wholly deserving of our support after fleeing violence and torture in their own countries.
We welcome the powerful rejection of far right hate and outpouring of community solidarity that we have seen in recent gatherings across the country. We strongly believe in supporting people of all backgrounds, cultures and beliefs to thrive, and feel that hope and healing can only be achieved through people coming together to work for the good of everyone.
