In August, the Mayor of Southampton made a speech commemorating the setting sail of the Mayflower 400 years ago.

In the speech, she reaffirmed the city’s Sanctuary Pledge made by the full Council in July 2017.

You can see the speech HERE.

The team curating the Mayflower 400 celebrations are preparing ten short “City of….” videos, including one called City of Sanctuary, which will feature Southampton refugees.
