Pls pass it on!: some of the autistic kids in our community need 1:1 support to be safe & have a gd time in our space without their parent. So we need more volunteers with relevant experience & without it - as this frees up capacity for others to do 1:1 akwaaba.org.uk/volunteers

Every day the news brings more horrors for migrants in the UK. Borders = death, they are everywhere & we need to organize against them everywhere! One space for building the solidarity we need to end borders is Akwaaba & we're always in need of more people akwaaba.org.uk/volunteers/
