Quite a lot of people who are interested in the refugee crisis are trying to persuade their local Councils to offer to take a number of refugees. As far as I know, only Glasgow and Edinburgh have offered to do so, so far.
This is an online petition for anyone in <a class="break-all" href="//Milngavie.www.ipetitions.com/petition/milngavie-welcomes-refugees" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Milngavie.www.ipetitions.com/petition/milngavie-welcomes-refugees
If anyone knows of any other petitions directed at Councils, perhaps you could post a link here.
