Bradford, A Place of Sanctuary and Peace Building

Bradford has a strong history of peace activism and welcoming those seeking sanctuary.

This short film exploring Bradford's history of peace activism will introduce you to those who have sought sanctuary in the city as they discuss how they have made Bradford their home. As well as introducing you to the amazingly diverse and creative range of projects and organisations that seek to support sanctuary seekers.

This event has been organised in collaboration with the University of Bradford, City of Sanctuary, Bradford Refugee Forum, BIASAN and Stand and Be Counted Theatre.

This performance is produced by SBC Theatre, the UK’s first Theatre Company of Sanctuary.

Short Film

TALES OF LOVE AND LOSS

Picture a mother seeking asylum in the UK. What do you see? A poor helpless refugee who should be pitied or a powerful, resilient woman who would lay down her life for her family? An ignorant woman who can’t speak English or mother with a wealth of knowledge and experience who may well speak many languages. What you imagine may be far removed from reality.

A collaboration between: the Refugee Council, White Ribbon Alliance, Maternity Stream of Sanctuary and SBC Theatre.

This performance is produced by SBC Theatre, the UK’s first Theatre Company of Sanctuary.

Animated Short Film

An Act of Care

To celebrate the 72nd birthday of the NHS we are proud to present our latest Sanctuary Broadcast Commission, An Act of Care (in response to right now) from archipelago collective. This animated, urgent love letter to the NHS was made to recognise all that those working in the NHS and on the frontline have done to keep us safe. It didn't have to be like this, but given how events in the coronavirus pandemic have unfolded, we think it's vital to speak out for those wonderful people. Most importantly those that have lost their lives to protect ours. Now more than ever, the NHS needs us to stand up and fight for it, otherwise, it won't be there next time.

The first line of the NHS constitution reads: the NHS belongs to the people. 

SO WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO TO FIGHT FOR IT?
