To: Amber Rudd. Home Secretary

Accept the number of child refugees agreed under the Dubs amendment

Comply with the government's commitment to accept 3000
lone child refugee migrants who are stranded in Europe or who have families in the UK.

Why is this important?

The Government agreed to make an amendment to the number of child refugees who would be admitted to the UK in line with what is now referred to as the Dubs amendment.Only 350 out of 3000 children have so far been admitted and it would appear that the Home Secretary has been delaying this process. Children are hungry, cold, vulnerable and at risk to abuse and exploitation in camps which are unfit for habitation: we have agreed to accept them and many churches and charities have confirmed their willingness to support this process.
