Dear Friend,
As you know, Consonant (formerly Asylum Aid) has been running an Emergency Appeal for the past 6 weeks. We are hugely grateful to all of you who have given already, particularly as we are aware that everyone is facing huge challenges due to Covid 19 - thank you.
At Consonant our work has been continuing apace, albeit remotely, as we continue helping clients who are now relying on us more than ever during this crisis. It is business as usual for our legal team and the life changing immigration cases that they work on. Many of the people we have helped work in the NHS and other key roles.
But we are still facing a serious funding crisis and will have to shut our doors permanently if we cannot raise additional funds for our core costs in the next week or so.
There is only ONE WEEK left to save Consonant by supporting our Appeal!
The videos on our Crowdfunder page, along with the comments from those who have given already, including several of our service users, underline why our work is so crucial, even more so in light of coronavirus.
For those of you on Twitter, please retweet the pinned tweet on our profile.
Or you could post this proposed tweet, if you prefer:
Consonant (formerly Asylum Aid) is a charity that helps #refugees, #migrants, #stateless people, and others in need of protection in the UK. They have launched an emergency fundraising appeal. Pls donate if you can & please RT @Consonant_UK #NeighboursHelp https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/neighbours-help
A donation of any size would mean a lot to us; they all add up.
All donations made via the Crowdfunder page will be returned to donors if we do not reach our fundraising target and our trustees decide we must close the organisation.
