Migrants and Refugees

Our four main aims: the pastoral challenges, the policy challenges, the UK Visa and Immigration Points Based System and promoting major events for migrant communities.

Love the Stranger

'Love the Stranger' presents a Catholic response to refugees and migrants. It is a 2023 document of the Department for International Affairs.

Hong Kong UK Catholic Migrants

A Pastoral Coordination Group has been set up to support Hong Kong Catholic Migrants in the UK.

Community Sponsorship Scheme

The Community Sponsorship Scheme offers a way for local groups - including parish groups - to assist refugees fleeing war and violence to integrate safely into our local communities. 

Migrants' Mass

The Migrants' Mass has become an annual event and a feature of the Catholic Church's calendar.
