Caring in migrant families: Key messages and film screening

Please join us for this event to hear about the key messages from our project on Care, Inequalities and Wellbeing among Transnational Families in the UK, Spain, France and Sweden.

Lunch and refreshments will be provided. Families with children are welcome.

We will share the key messages from our research and launch the final report and recommendations. We will also show short films about the experiences of families involved in the research and the changes they want to see. The films were co-produced with family participants and Rank and File theatre.
Themes include:

  • language barriers in accessing healthcare
  • young caregiving and language brokering in transnational families
  • challenges of accessing English for Speakers of Other Language courses
  • barriers to family visits and family reunification.

There will be an opportunity to ask questions and discuss the project with team members from the University of Reading, partner organisations and community researchers.

Everyone is welcome, just turn up – there is no need to register for this event.

If you have any access or dietary requirements, or questions about the event, please do not hesitate to contact Ruth Evans by email (r.evans@reading.ac.uk) or by phone 0118 378 7755
