Esther Baleh and her family fled Syria during the early stages of the civil war. She now lives in the UK and, while studying fashion, dedicates her time to volunteering and humanitarian work.
For Refugee Week, we continue to celebrate the refugees and the communities who support them, making a difference in their communities during Covid-19.
We have put together a selection of recently-released movies made by refugees or that tell their stories. That’s because we strongly believe in the importance of storytelling from experts by experience. These are usually the voices we hear the least but are the most powerful of all.
Let’s celebrate the volunteers, charities, organisations, fundraisers, donors and workers supporting those who most need it in this current tough situation.
