Hello! And welcome to East Lothian County of Sanctuary.
We are part of East Lothian Welcomes Refugees, a movement of people who live all over East Lothian who have supported practical action to help refugees since 2015.
We are pleased to support East Lothian Aid for Refugees and to be working with East Lothian Council in supporting refugee resettlement in our county.
Our work includes awareness-raising, organising and supporting intercultural events, and helping out with practical requests and support in general.
We wanted to become a County of Sanctuary so we can be part of a bigger movement to offer welcome and hospitality to all.
