Women Asylum Seeker and Refugee Awareness and Advocacy Event- 24^th March at Zion Arts Centre,

The Arise and Shine advocacy project, funded by North West Together We Can, aims to increase understanding of the issues faced by women asylum seekers and refugees among those who provide services to this community or play a role in developing policy which touches them in some way. We want to create new channels of communication between these marginalised women and service providers and policy makers.

The event is in two parts:

- A play calledHow I Became an Asylum Seeker by Lydia Besong, performed by Women Asylum Seekers Together (WAST), 3-4pm

- A discussion and workshop facilitated by women asylum seekers from the Arise and Shine campaign steering group, 4.30pm-5.40pm
