World Refugee Day is a special day for reflection, congratulations and collective thinking here at ACH. Indeed, with offices in Bristol, Birmingham and Wolverhampton and over 11 years’ experience of working directly with refugees, we understand the enormous benefit they continue to bring to their adopted countries and communities.

ACH Wolverhampton is proud to be playing a part in the city’s Refugee Week celebrations through funding the production of a number of pieces of art, including a 4.5-metre wolf, via our #rethinkingrefugee campaign.

We always look forward to the flurry of exciting events happening each year for Refugee Week as it is a chance for ACH to get involved with this important celebration of the contribution that refugees have on our society. This year Refugee Week is running from the 17th to the 23rd June and the Bristol Refugee Festival runs throughout 11th – 30th June, coinciding with Refugee Week.
