Overview

Stop by the JMS and help support local charity, Refuweegee, by leaving a welcoming message for refugees arriving in Glasgow for Student Refugee Week. 


Refuweegee is a community-led charity that gives people a way to welcome and embrace those newest to arrive. They strive to ensure that people who have been forced to flee their homes arrive in Scotland to a warm welcome and some of the things that will help them to feel more at home here.

Every welcome pack that Refuweegee passes on contains a 'Letter fae a Local'. These are the heart and soul of their packs and where the team lose hours of their days reading wonderful welcoming words! From postcards to post-it-notes, letters to pictures, as long as they are welcoming and kind then they would love to receive them and pass them on.

And grab a sweet from the stall after you submit a postcard!
