Seventeen countries agreed to help Syrian refugees by providing a safe haven to some of the most vulnerable fleeing the violence. But the UK is not one of them. Only 0.1% of the 2 million people who have fled Syria have found safety in the UK. The vast majority - 97% - are surviving in harsh conditions in the neighbouring countries. With temperatures plummeting as winter approaches and more than half a million Syrian children living in temporary shelters and camps, we’re deeply concerned about how they and others will cope. Please send an urgent email to your MP now? (Refugee Council)
