In early August, I travelled to Cyprus with friends from the Community of Sant’Egidio. The sun shone every day we were there, but we didn’t come for the weather. We came to support the work of the Community in the refugee camps of Pournara and Kofinou, where hundreds of men, women, and children wait—for papers, for safety, for recognition, for a future.

St Giles in the Fields welcomes the UK Coordinator who will be reflecting on how she became a member of the Community of Sant'Egidio, how it changed her life, and how its work makes a difference.
