Supporting #StopRwanda at WOMAD

It was great to see support for our #StopRwanda campaign at the WOMAD Festival in Wiltshire at the weekend. Womad (World of Music, Arts and Dance) has always been about understanding and welcoming people from other countries. This year the organisers gave out free tickets to families hosting Ukrainian refugees so that they could bring their guests along to be a part of it.

People here really understand that if they stand together, they can make a difference. As the critic Robin Denselow wrote about this year’s festival, “In our era of walls and vocal bigots, Womad is more important than ever.”

The government’s Rwanda plan is built on bigoted attitudes, and we’re fighting it with all our strength – but we need your support. We need to show the Government that the plan is not wanted in Britain; to help, please download or make a #StopRwanda sign, and then put it somewhere that will be seen:

– in your car window

– on your front door

– on your kids’ lunchboxes

– on your postbox

– anywhere in your neighbourhood

– at a music festival

And feel free to send us pics.
