The Refugee Tales was a unique walk, organised by Gatwick Detainee Welfare Group following the North Downs Way from Dover to Crawley via Canterbury along some of the paths that were taken by the Canterbury pilgrims many centuries ago.

Participants reflected on the many long and dangerous journeys that refugees make fleeing war and persecution, seeking a safe place to live. Walkers joined either for the whole 80 mile walk or part of it over a few days.

One of the stops along the way was our church, St Nicholas’, Worth where we provided welcome refreshment.
