Church Action On Poverty is having a campaign during Lent for people to live as someone made destitute by the Government's policy for people refused asylum.
People taking part will exchange their weekly food budget for a food parcel & £3.50 cash which they will live off for one week of Lent. In an "Endurance Journal", participants will record if their budget stretches to turning on the heat, or using a phone or a car.
In Coventry, the local churches group for refugees is working on a scheme for next month. More on this as it comes in!
