## Stories of Hope and Home Registered Charity: 1195224 **ANNUAL REPORT JULY 2021 - MARCH 2022** 



@stories_of_home hopeandhomestories www.storiesofhome.org.uk 



## **Our Vision** 

For people who have lived experience of the UK asylum system to have spaces for their stories and experiences to be shared and heard, contributing to a more wellinformed and welcoming society in which people who have sought sanctuary feel empowered, included and re-humanised. 


## **Our Aims** 

Stories of Hope and Home has dual, complementary aims: 

to bring together people with lived experience of seeking asylum: to create safe spaces to build community and to explore and process their experiences. 

to facilitate encounters and share stories with others: promoting learning, challenging misconceptions, developing empathy and inspiring action. 

_Or,as it puts it in our constitution:_ 

_1) The promotion of social inclusion for the public benefit among refugees and asylum seekers in the West Midlands who are socially excluded on the grounds of their social and economic position, by providing a space and community in which to meet others, build friendships, practise the English language, learn communication skills and creatively explore stories and life experiences as a means of integrating into a new community._ 

_2) To advance the education of the public through the provision of activities and events which inform participants and develop their understanding of the lived experience of asylum seekers and refugees who flee persecution and settle in a new country, help to foster positive attitudes towards diversity and migration and counter misinformation._ 



## **Context: The Story So Far** 

Stories of Hope and Home came into existence as an unincorporated organisation in October 2019. Birmingham has a proud tradition as a city of sanctuary and welcome, and is a place where numerous organisations support people who have arrived seeing safety in a multitude of different, important ways. Stories of Hope and Home was never intended to deny or duplicate the amazing work done by others, but to supplement it by filling a specific, identified need: that of offering an intentional safe space for those who have sought sanctuary to share their stories and experiences and giving other people a space to hear them. 

And so it began: we drank tea, shared stories, created poetry, built community, became friends, and reached out to others. Until within six months of starting, a global pandemic shifted the entirety of how we could operate and what we could do. But we survived. We discovered zoom, offered mutual support, wrote a book, and emerged still standing. 

We became a registered CIO (charitably incorporated organisation), charity number: 1195224 on 20th July 2021. This report relates to the period from then until the end of the first financial year, 31st March 2022. 





## **What We Do: A (partial) Year in Review** 

Stories of Hope and Home brings together a group of people with lived experience of seeking asylum at regular sessions, twice each week. After a long time solely on zoom and then using a hybrid model, by the summer of 2021 we were finally back to holding all our meetings in person. Attendance varies, and includes both regular attenders over a long period of time and others who come and go. The group is close-knit and mutually supportive, frequently describing the project as being “their family”; but always remains open and welcoming to newcomers too. 

Regular sessions involve space to build community and for conversation, creative writing and lots of coffee and cake! Many are organised ‘in house’, but we also welcome opportunities to take part in different projects with input from other facilitators. In autumn 2021 we took part in a series of art workshops with BCAT (Birmingham Centre for Art Therapies) as part of the “Everything to Everybody” project. Shortly afterwards we had a series of facilitated conversations exploring the things we love about our communities, the challenges and our visions to make change through the Near Neighbours "Real People,  Honest Talk" programme. In February 2022 we began working on an exciting substantial project in collaboration with Welsh National Opera Company … but as it was only just getting started, the rest of that story is for next year’s report! 

Trips and shared activities play an important role in how we build community and deepen our connections with one another so we are always looking for opportunities to get out and about and to share in celebrations. Various visits through the year included trips to the theatre, to local attractions Aston Hall, 


Blakesley Hall and the Botanical Gardens, greeting little Amal when she came to and a Erdington wonderful jam and scone making day. 

There were plenty of excuses for celebrations too including Eritrean Christmas and Nowruz (Persian / Kurdish / Azeri New Year) as well as lots of birthdays! 



After a fallow period during the pandemic when schools were closed and then reopened with very strict restrictions on visitors, we were especially happy that this period marked the time when our work with schools began to take off again. We visited primary, secondary and special education settings speaking to children from early years to sixth form and everyone in between! We also spoke at staff meetings, and to groups of school chaplains and primary head teachers. While educational settings have always been our main focus, we are always open to other invitations and have facilitated encounters with a number of other groups during the year too, both in person and online. 

The Week of Action against the anti-refugee laws was a particularly busy one: we contributed to a Schools of Sanctuary event, helped with a city-centre awareness-raising stall, one of our members courageously shared her story resulting in some very positive press coverage: - - - - https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands news/over here im - - asylum seeker 21944962, plus a few of us made it down to London where we managed to fit in quite a bit of sight seeing as well as the rally outside parliament. 

Without a doubt the most significant of our trips and our outreach work were the two Festivals of Encounter we facilitated jointly with the Columbans. They brought together participants from Stories of Hope and Home with, for the first, a motley collection of educators we had met online during the pandemic, and for the second a group of primary headteachers as part of a structured programme organised in collaboration with the Catholic Primary Partnership. Each involved three days of shared activities, eating together, learning and workshops, structured and informal conversations, story sharing, community building, fun and friendship. The impact of these extended encounters on everyone who participated is hard to articulate or define but we believe they were truly transformational. 

There is, of course, always much more to say than these edited highlights can communicate, but hopefully this provides a flavour of who we are and what we are about! 



## **Our Impact: Stats and Stories** 

_"My heart has definitely become more receptive and sensitive to migrant stories since spending time with Stories of Hope and Home. Not to say that I was not listening prior to this experience, but there has certainly been a shift from being a passive hearer to a more active one." (Volunteer)_ 

**41 adult participants** 

**15 accompanying children** 

**54 sessions** 

_Staff and children learnt so much on the day and were in_ **14 nationalities** _awe of how brave the visitors were. We recognised their_ **15 newcomers** _strength and courage in sharing their stories. The visit touched our hearts and we will certainly_ **2 residentials** _be asking you back in the future. Many thanks for the work you do._ **14 other trips** _(Headteacher following_ **and activities** _a school visit)_ **2 poetry performances** 

**15 school visits 1600 students 12 other (approx) encounters** 

_To say that the experience was transformative barely does it justice. We all came away from our encounter feeling like different people. I feel it ignited something inside me – a desire to know more, to understand more, and to do more. (Festival of Encounter Participant)_ 

_I am part of this wonderful family. I call it family because I see everyone there as my family and I am really glad I had the opportunity to be part of it. We are different people with different cultures but we are one. Stories of Hope and Home has really made a great difference: having a group to share your pains, joy and stories, having a place to call home, having the confidence to be able to write and create. I wasn’t able to do all these things before but above all it is having a group of people that care about you. (Sanctuary-seeking Participant)_
