Eagles Wing – come as strangers, stay as friends

• We are a mutual support group of friends made up of local people, asylum seekers and refugees living in the Bury area.
• We welcome people of all ages, nationality and ability.
• The staff are unpaid and all our members help to run our groups: children are always welcome to our events, but parents MUST take care of them to keep them safe.
• We celebrate each others’ cultures and good fortune and help each other when there are problems.
• We are all equal and treat each other with respect and care.  Aggressive behaviour is not acceptable.
• All of us work to change things for the better for individual members and for ALL refugees.
• The elected committee makes sure that the group works in the interests of our members.
