Refugee Week is a UK wide programme of arts, cultural and educational events that celebrate the contribution of refugees to the UK, and encourage a better understanding between communities.

Your Homes Newcastle is supporting Refugee Week 2008 by setting up food collection points across its offices to encourage YHN staff to donate food and basic toiletries which will be given to voluntary projects in Newcastle.
