Cardiff City of Sanctuary

On 5th June 2014 Cardiff became the seventh UK city to officially be recognised as a ‘City of Sanctuary’. To receive this accolade, Cardiff had to demonstrate that it is a city that welcomes new arrivals seeking a safe place to live after fleeing war or persecution.

Cardiff is now on its way to further develop as a city where:

• people’s culture, skills and differences are accepted as a positive complement to Cardiff as a city
• there is a shared commitment and a service infrastructure that facilitates an environment of sanctuary
• there is a culture of welcome that creates relationships, community cohesion and inclusion

Asylum Justice is proud to have pledged its full support to Cardiff City of Sanctuary.

You, too, can join the movement and pledge to make new comers welcome in Cardiff. Email your pledge to info@cardiff.cityofsanctuary.org.
