Grassroots activism

Want to take action and join our movement for a more compassionate asylum system? We’re building a grassroots activist network and need your help.

By volunteering, you can support our mission, bringing a Jewish-values led approach to welcoming refugees, and challenging the racism that they face, to politicians and decision makers. You’ll also ensure that a strong, positive Jewish voice is heard both locally in your constituency and nationally.

You’ll join our committed team of campaigners, working together to fight for a UK where refugees can thrive, free from racism.

You could:

• Bring the Jewish case for a fairer asylum system to your MP or local Council
• Work with us to build a local movement in your synagogue or constituency
• Join with others and campaign to become a Borough or City of Sanctuary
• Support our office team with our national-level advocacy

You’ll get resources and training, and dedicated support and advice with your campaigning. Whether you can give a few hours a week, volunteer once a month, or a couple of times a year, your time and support will make a huge difference.

Use our template letters to lobby your MP to call for change.

• Urge the Government to introduce a permanent 56-day ‘move-on’ period for all new refugees.
• Stand against the refugee citizenship ban.
