Welcome to Rainbow Haven


A place of welcome, support, and opportunity for displaced people in Manchester and the surrounding areas.


Rainbow Haven provides community drop-in sessions that offers support and activities for refugees, asylum seekers and vulnerable migrants.  


Statement on the recent far-right violence

Everyone who lives here has the right to call it their home and feel like they belong.

Recent far-right violence has made some of our people feel unsafe and unwelcome.

We will never accept hatred based on skin colour or faith.

We want to reassure you that:

-        You are always welcome at Rainbow Haven

-        Most people support your right to live free from harassment and threats, and want you to feel safe.

 

If someone is making you feel unsafe, we recommend you do not engage with them and get to a place of safety as soon as you can. Please let us know if it happens here, or stops you from seeing us, by emailing info@rainbowhaven.org.uk, and we will do our best to support you.

 

To report a hate crime, such as racism, please contact Greater Manchester Police by calling 101 or going to a police station. If it is an emergency, call 999. If you don't want to speak to the police you can go to another organisation which takes reports - see this list - or report anonymously here, or here for anti-Muslim hate.

لكل من يعيش هنا له الحق في أن يسميها بلده ويشعر بأنه ينتمي إليه.
لقد جعلت أعمال العنف اليمينية المتطرفة الأخيرة بعض أفراد شعبنا يشعرون بعدم الأمان وعدم الترحيب.


لن نقبل أبدًا الكراهية على أساس لون البشرة أو العقيدة.
نريد أن نطمئنك إلى:
- أنت دائمًا موضع ترحيب في Rainbow Haven
- يدعم معظم الناس حقك في العيش خاليًا من المضايقات والتهديدات، ويريدونك أن تشعر بالأمان.
 
إذا كان شخص ما يجعلك تشعر بعدم الأمان، فنوصيك بعدم الانخراط معه والوصول إلى مكان آمن في أقرب وقت ممكن. يرجى إخبارنا إذا حدث ذلك هنا، أو منعك من رؤيتنا عن طريق البريد الإلكتروني info@rainbowhaven.org.uk، وسنبذل قصارى جهدنا لدعمك.
 
للإبلاغ عن جريمة كراهية، مثل العنصرية، يرجى الاتصال بشرطة مانشستر على الرقم 101 أو الذهاب إلى مركز الشرطة. إذا كانت حالة طارئة، فاتصل على الرقم 999.

If you don't want to speak to the police you can go to another organisation which takes reports - see this list - or report anonymously here, or here for anti-Muslim hate.
