HostNation 🧡

Now that voting is well underway, here's a look at last years £100,000 - £250,000 Judges Choice Winner, @HostNationUK, with their film "Friends in Deed". Hostnation's charming piece shows us the power and impact of real friendship for refugees. It highlights with sophistication and clarity how much we have in common, regardless of where in the world we are from.💛 Have your say by following the link below! 👉 smileycharityfilmawards.com/films 👈 #smileyCFA25 #charityfilmawards #TheSmileys #CFA25 #Smiley

Crafting connection, cultivating wellbeing 🧶🌱 On Thursday, I had the privilege of attending a wellbeing session at @RHSBridgewater with Ahmet and some other @HostNationUK befrienders.  As you can see from my jacket (in the second picture), the weather wasn’t on our side. 🧵

WHAT a turnout! 🥳🙌 #CharityTuesday So special to have so many of you pop along to our networking event last week, connecting with the amazing @felixprojectuk @HostNationUK @RefugeeEdUK @ThamesReach @befriendedapp Check out their #Volunteering opportunites! #EveryoneMatters

🎉We’ve made 1000 friendships! Help us make 1000 more. Our very first #refugee friendship– Dani & Yvette–is still going strong after seven years. The 1000th is already off to a great start.🧡 Make a refugee feel welcome.🤝 Donate today: justgiving.com/campaign/1000f… #RefugeesWelcome
