Jess Philips MP meets Baobab young people

Young people from The Baobab Centre recently met with Jess Phillips MP who encouraged our young people to not hesitate and “speak truth to power”.

A group of our young people attended the meeting – third meeting for our advocacy efforts – and presented their circumstances, calling for more action on the Afghan Resettlement Scheme, and for more spirited opposition to the Nationality and Borders bill to be discussed in Parliament. 

As one of the young people put it to Jess,

“We can’t go to Parliament and make change but you can. You are our hope.”
