This briefing is intended to provide a summary of Barnardo’s offer of support for refugees and our wider work to combat trafficking and exploitation in preparation for the Member's Business debate on making Scotland hostile to trafficking and a safe place for Ukrainian refugees.
Barnardo’s Scotland welcomes the motion by Bill Kidd MSP and views this debate as an important opportunity to highlight the treatment of refugees in Scotland. We welcome the acknowledgement that refugees are particularly vulnerable to exploitation and encourage the Scottish Government to continue working with all partners to raise awareness and help refugees to safely rebuild their lives.
