❤️ Everyone is a human being. Everyone deserves dignity, respect and compassion.

We’re pleased to share Ronnie, CEO of Refugee Sanctuary Scotland, speaking with Glasgow Live about the recent far-right protests in Glasgow and the importance of standing together against hate and division.

🗣️ “Everyone is a human being and you should treat your neighbour as you would like yourself to be treated.” — Ronnie, CEO of Refugee Sanctuary Scotland

These words reflect the values at the heart of our work. Everyone deserves to feel safe, welcome and valued, regardless of where they come from. Refugees and people seeking sanctuary are our neighbours, our friends and part of our communities.

At a time when fear and division can take hold, we must choose compassion, understanding and solidarity. Together, we can help build a Scotland where everyone has the chance to live in safety and with dignity.

🧡 Let’s stand together for kindness, humanity and sanctuary.

🌍🍎 World Food Day | 16 October 2026 💜🥖

This week, we’re recognising World Food Day and highlighting the importance of ensuring everyone has access to safe, nutritious food. 🥕🥦🍞

At Refugee Sanctuary Scotland, we believe that everyone deserves access to the essentials needed to live with dignity — including food, shelter and a safe place to call home. 🏡❤️

For people seeking asylum, navigating an unfamiliar system and facing destitution can mean struggling to access even the most basic necessities. No one should have to worry about where their next meal will come from. 💔🍽️

Food is more than nourishment. It brings people together, builds community and offers comfort and connection, especially when people are far from home. 🤝🌱🍲

This World Food Day, we stand alongside everyone working towards a world without hunger — a world where everyone can access the food they need to thrive. 🌎✨

Together, we can help build a kinder, fairer society where nobody is left behind. 💜🫶

🕊️ ANTI-SLAVERY WEEK | 12–18 OCTOBER 2026 🕊️

🚨 Human trafficking has NO place in Scotland. 🚨

💔 Exploitation and trafficking have been identified in all 32 local authorities across Scotland. It can happen anywhere, to anyone.

🤝 People seeking asylum and refugees can face increased risks due to language barriers, isolation, poverty and uncertainty about their rights. Everyone deserves safety, dignity and freedom from exploitation — regardless of their background or immigration status. ❤️🏡

👀 Recognise the signs. 🗣️ Listen without judgement. 🫶 Connect people with support. Every action matters.

📣 In July 2026, our CEO Ronnie spoke at the It's a Penalty campaign, bringing together 85 representatives from across Scotland to strengthen our collective response to trafficking and exploitation ahead of the Commonwealth Games in Scotland. 🤝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

✨ This Anti-Slavery Week, let’s stand together to protect people, challenge exploitation and build safer communities for all. ❤️🕊️

Human trafficking has no place in Scotland. Freedom, dignity and safety are for everyone. ✊💜
