Will you stand #WithRefugees?
In a fairly shitty year so far this gives me faith. In what I'm not sure. But I'm so so glad it's happening.
Please sign the petition & cheer on #TeamRefugees.

Just a picture in a tweet...
But it has stuck with me all week.
The more I learn about the war in Syria, the more I despair at the lack of action from our political leaders.
But, this picture from UNHCR's twitter feed isn't about politics. It's about adults and children who left their homes in the Summer who are now horrifically unprepared for Winter.
So I know who I'm giving my Christmas donation to this year. UNHCR. They are on the ground helping people who are cold. People like the girl in the picture.
Much more than just a picture in a tweet.
