Petition End the Detention of vulnerable Refugee Children

The #canyouhearme project wishes to protect vulnerable refugee children from being held in unsuitable detention facilities that do not safeguard their wellbeing.

We call the Government to account for their promises to better safeguard and end the detention of innocent children.

The Trump American Refugee Ban has caused outrage around the globe. We as UK citizens want to show an act of solidarity against the treatment of young child refugees being detained, who merely seek sanctuary after escaping terrible and unimaginable terror.

Help their voices be heard.
