Refugee Week 2024: Our Home

Mark Refugee Week in Hammersmith & Fulham with exciting events and conversations celebrating the resilience and creativity of the global refugee community.

Hammersmith & Fulham Council is celebrating Refugee Week with seven days of free events, Saturday 15 June to Friday 21 June, inspired by the theme 'Our Home'. All events are open to everyone.

In H&F we want a better world for refugees, where they are welcomed by everyone, respected and treated fairly.

Refugee Week highlights how much asylum seekers and refugees contribute to our daily lives and reconfirms our commitment to be a haven for those fleeing persecution, violence, and war.

It's also an excellent opportunity to thank and recognise them for their contributions to enriching our lives.

Take a look at our photos from last year's Sunday Funday.
