The BraveBox of Sanctuary is a new initiative for June 2024 funded by Locala Community Fund and delivered in partnership with our members EdShift CIC and St. Augustine’s Centre.

Thanks to some lovely volunteers, we have created 200 boxes to give out to newly arrived young people who are seeking sanctuary in Calderdale. The boxes contain fidget toys, words of affirmation, key phrases in several languages and information about going to school in England.

If you are a teacher, social worker, parent, carer etc. of a child or young person of school or college age who has recently arrived to Calderdale and is seeking asylum please contact Blake on [email protected] to request a free BraveBox of Sanctuary!
