During the recent Refugee Week, we celebrated all that refugees bring to our society. I’ve been volunteering as a mentor for the charity, Breadwinners, along with my colleague Becky, since last year. Breadwinners provides jobs, work experience, training and mentoring for refugees and young people seeking asylum, across London farmers market stalls. On 21^st June, the Breadwinners family came together for a virtual fun run, supporting Refugee Week and its #SimpleActs campaign.
