Starting off Refugee Week, we wanted to give a platform to our local refugee voices in a time where they need to be heard. In a recent BBC Radio Ulster interview conducted in our Omagh office, John Toal spoke with refugees who have recently settled in the area. The conversation highlighted the refugees’ journeys, their experiences of fleeing conflict and persecution, and the challenges they faced in seeking asylum. The refugees shared personal stories about their transition to life in Omagh, including the support they’ve received from the local community and the obstacles they continue to face.
