Video testimony: Leeds STAR campaign for better asylum housing

Leeds STAR is campaigning for better housing for asylum seekers in Leeds – check out their video!

Refugee Housing Campaign

Leeds STAR has been working in coalition with other NGOs in the Leeds area on the Better Asylum Housing Campaign. One of the aims of the campaign is to empower asylum seekers in substandard housing to give testimony about their situations. By giving them a voice, we hope to collate enough evidence that can be presented to the UKBA and which will force them to address the issue. This film, made by Suze Trevelyan, highlights the problem and shows examples of the kind of evidence we have been trying to collect.
