We are proud to share a letter from Sala Abdalla, recently published in The Observer, written in response to the growing tide of intolerance towards refugees and migrants.
Sala, now a consultant surgeon at Ealing Hospital, reflects on her arrival in the UK as a ten-year-old child fleeing political persecution in Sudan. Her letter is a deeply personal account, shaped by her own lived experience and her belief in kindness, compassion and inclusion.
With her permission, we present her letter here.
We invite you to read her message in full.
