FACES Luton

Tony, Melissa and Nigel discuss recent news regarding refugees and people claiming asylum and the situations they face in Luton. We discuss how faith encourages us to support people going through lengthy asylum processes, the vulnerabilities presesent and challenge the false idea that men seeking asylum are not also vulnerable.

Nigel interviews Rehana, Sufian and Peter for Islamophobia Awareness Month. Rehana and Sufian share what it can feel like living, studying and working in an Islamophobic environment and its impact on jobs, career progression, mental health and other areas. Peter shares what can be done to challenge Islamophobia.

Nigel discusses with Sujel, Peter and Tony thoughts around 'inter-faith' and 'multi-faith' and which best suits FACES as an organisation. The discussion raises several key points on how organisations can work together whilst strongly holding a diversity of beliefs.
