Calais Migrant Solidarity are making an urgent call out for more bodies on the ground as rolling evictions of migrant shelters continue. Donations of tents, sleeping bags, warm clothes and blankets are also desperately needed.
CMS is holding two day training weekend on Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th November, 10-5pm, at the London Action Resource Centre (LARC). The weekend is open for people who have and have not been before and want to get involved in No Borders in Calais of from the UK. There will be a series of workshops debriefing on the situation in Calais and wider Europe, with legal, asylum and detention workshops and sessions working through day to day scenarios around ID controls, evictions and demolitions, hunger strikes as well as anti-deportation and detention support – in France and the UK.
