🚨 From today, the minimum income threshold for spouse visas rises from £18600 to £29,000 - pricing 50% of the UK population out of cross-border love.

In early 2025, the threshold will increase to £38,700 - around 70% of the UK population don't earn this.

Talking about the asylum process can be tough. Political scapegoating & divisive culture wars means the truth is often twisted or lost.

Just 8 days left to sign the petition calling for a visa scheme allowing Palestinians in the UK to bring their families to safety.

Please add your name and spread the word. We need 100,000 signatures to ensure this important issue is debated in Parliament!

That we can do this for Ukrainians - setting up a scheme in six weeks and bringing 170,000 people to safety - but we can't do it for Afghans and Palestinians is a sickening indictment.

The UK government can and should be doing so much more for Gaza.

Eid al-fitr Mubarak! From our family to yours, we wish all those celebrating a joyful and peaceful day x

What a beautiful film, full of hope, joy and love ❤️ Please watch and share.

Maheep means business 😍

Maheep has just become Portsmouth's Youth Ambassador in the Portsmouth Youth Cabinet.

Maheep has sought sanctuary in the UK from Afghanistan. Her tenacity & resilience make her the perfect youth ambassador!

She is is a force to be reckoned with💪

Cooking connects us to our roots🍴

But people seeking sanctuary housed in hotels are unable to cook for themselves.

That's why Portsmouth City of Sanctuary have started this incredible project allowing people to cook dishes from home & give back to the community
