Oxfam ‘Young and Alone: Families Together’

By Catherine Prowse

Adult refugees in Britain have a right to be reunited with some of their family members, but children do not. Children get separated from their families for many reasons while fleeing dangerous places. The Families Together campaign is a coalition between Oxfam, The Refugee Council, The British Red Cross and Amnesty International, and highlights the trauma faced by children when they are forced to grow up separated from their families.
