This week we welcome Jess Thompson, founder and CEO of Migrateful whose mission it is to empower and celebrate refugees on their journey to integration. In this episode we learn about the challenges faced by refugees and migrants living in the UK today, and hear Jess’ stories from the borders of Morocco to estates in London on how she has been helping refugees integrate and find a new a place they can call home.

A lovely takeaway to leave you from Jess: There are so many brilliant ideas out there that could be made into something, start your own thing, don’t be afraid to give it go!
