Norwich City of Sanctuary is part of the national charity, City of Sanctuary UK. Our aim is simple: to encourage a culture of welcome towards refugees and asylum-seekers who settle in our city. Our Steering Group meets bi-monthly. Our Awards Committee reviews applications throughout the year. Successful applications are celebrated at our Annual Celebration in February each year, at an event hosted by our friends at Norwich Arts Centre.
