This short film has been made by one of our Community Reporters. Two asylum seekers living in Bury talk about the difficulties they face as they wait to hear if they can stay in the UK.
This film is a perfect example of what Community Reporters are all about – real people, real issues. We have put it up on our Ethni-city website (www.ethni-city.net), in the hope of both raising awareness of the problems asylum seekers face in this country, and also as a way of letting other asylum seekers know that they are not alone.
If you have something you want to shout about, or you want to highlight – and it can be anything!- then get in touch with us – we can help you get on your way, or just provide a wider distribution channel! You can email me at jess@mcin.net.
Have fun!
This is an incredibly moving story beautifully told and it expresses so well the fears and difficulties faced by so many asylum seekers in this country. I hope that this community reporter can keep us posted on the cases featured as I’d be interested in following these stories.
