Syrian Refugees
We the undersigned petition the council to take part in the Kent Syrian Vulnerable Persons Relocation Scheme and pledge to provide at least one Syrian family a home in the next 5 years, as has every other District in Kent.
In response to the crisis in Syria, the Government set up the
Syrian Vulnerable Persons Relocation Scheme. This scheme involves
taking identified vulnerable refugees straight from the Middle East
and resettling them in the UK. The refugees are given 5 years
Humanitarian
Leave to Remain and as such are able to work and claim benefits
from day one.
