British Red Cross Hardship Fund: During the start of the pandemic we became a partner to the Red Cross scheme for emergency payment. We cannot thank them enough for this service, which aided people who had absolutely nothing to fall back on Dear Hardship Fund Partner, I wanted to take this opportunity one final time to thank you for all the support you have given the British Red Cross in distributing our Hardship Fund grant. Over the past 15 months, with your help we have reached 18,000 people across the UK delivering £4 million of support through 400 referral partners. Although the Hardship Fund comes to an end today, our achievements would not have been possible without our valued partners like you. 30.06.21 The British Red Cross can be there to give support to anyone affected. We provide the people, equipment, space and resources to support those affected by an emergency, helping them to recover. We can give support when emergencies happen: to individuals and families.

The situation in Eastern Europe is not improving as can be seen in the neo-nazi violent marches happening in Czech and Hungary, a history of segregation and racism, which all lead to increasing the likeliness of new arrivals in the UK. Thus the need for advocacy work to help improve, educate and support life in Derby city. Please click on following link for information about Roma in Derby.
