At a time when inclusivity is more important than ever, our recent collaboration with Solihull Council during Refugee Week reaffirms our commitment to empowering refugees and migrants, supporting their integration, and promoting employability. It is a great example of how communities can come together to support and uplift one another. The event, held in Solihull, showcased the resilience and talent of the refugee and migrant community while providing a platform for them to showcase their products and services.

A key highlight of the event was the presence of numerous stalls where refugee and migrant entrepreneurs proudly displayed their products and services. It was heartening to witness the vibrant and diverse range of offerings, from handmade crafts to a range of services. By supporting these entrepreneurs, we not only provided them with an avenue to showcase their talents but also fostered economic empowerment within our community.

In addition, we also actively promoted our employability, business support, and entrepreneurship services. Our team was on hand to offer advice, guidance, and resources to those seeking employment opportunities or looking to start their own ventures. We firmly believe in the potential of every individual, regardless of their background, and we strive to equip them with the tools they need to succeed.

As always, the success of this event was a testament to the power of collaboration and we are immensely proud to have partnered with the Solihull Council to create an impactful event where migrants and refugees were spotlighted, and connections were forged.

We welcome future collaborations and partnerships and encourage you to send an email to marketing@ach.org.uk and join us in ensuring everyone has an opportunity to thrive.
