Urban Myth - Refugees come to Europe for the social benefits. Not true. Most refugees are not aware of the benefits - they move to be with family. Only 8% of refugees seek to live in Europe.

From Tragedy to Hope

Though refugees have suffered horrendous tragedies and hardship, people who care are coming together aross the world and forming volunteer groups in every country where refugees can be found. Most of these groups do not get support or funds from their governments. We are just ​​​​​people helping people. When we come together to solve humanitarian problems, we become more than the sum of our parts. We are a human family.

"The Journey"
​
Iranian refugee and artist Majid Adin has teamed up with Help Refugees and Blinkink to create ‘The Journey’, a short film depicting the struggles of a separated Syrian family fleeing their home. The film follows a young Syrian boy whose home has been torn apart by war. Separated from his family during an aerial attack on his home, the young boy embarks on a long, dangerous journey to be reunited with his parents. As many families gather round Christmas trees, open gifts and share dinners with relatives during this festive holiday, countless child refugees battle freezing conditions, isolated and alone. Close to 1 in every 200 children across the globe are now displaced.
A compelling 62-minute film following the scandal of what happened to the almost 2000 lone children who were in the Calais Jungle as it burned down last year, most of whom had a legal case to be in the UK. What went wrong? Where are they now? And what can we do about it?
