Community Celebration
On Saturday 28th June 2025 we celebrated what our community superheroes mean to us at SRCF. Through wonderful performances, art, games, food and conversations, Refugee Week 2025 celebrated the contributions, resilience and talents of refugees and people seeking sanctuary.
This year was SRCF’s biggest celebration yet, with three separate events celebrating the week. The Refugee Week Celebration was sponsored by Southwark Council.
Women’s Wellbeing Brunch
The Women's Wellbeing Brunch was a heart warming and impactful event, designed to support and uplift asylum-seeking women currently residing in the 4 hotels in Southwark. The event provided a safe, welcoming, and culturally sensitive space for women to connect, relax, and focus on their physical, emotional, and mental well-being.
Football tournament
with Dulwich Hamlet Supporters Trust
SRCF collaborated with Dulwich Hamlet Community Trust to host our second annual Refugee Week football match. Players from all four Initial Accommodation Centres (IACs) in Southwark formed two teams and faced off on the pitch at Burgess Park. The teams were easily distinguished by their brightly coloured football shirts, generously provided by Dulwich Hamlet.
