Wollongong Welcomes Refugees: rally and march

Saturday, June 25, 2016 - 10:30

Its time to #CloseTheCamps and #BringThemHere!

The horrific treatment and villification of refugees by Australian authorities has gone on too long. Boat turnbacks and deaths in processing camps must end.

To coincide with Refugee Week, a rally and march is being held through Wollongong to show support for people seeking asylum in Australia, to call for the closing of all the camps, and to let the government know that Wollongong welcomes refugees!

So come join us at Crown Street Mall to say it loud and say it clear: refugees are welcome here!

This event is organised by Refugee Action Collective Illawarra. For more information contact Margaret Perrott on 0409 041 381
