A Sleeping Child Cheryl Martin
As part of Walk With Amal at Manchester International Festival in solidarity with migrants as part of Little Amal’s walk across Europe. As we follow Little Amal’s remarkable journey from Gaziantep near the Turkey-Syria border to Manchester in the UK, she shines an urgent light on the stories of the millions of young refugees who are displaced, and the many who are forced to risk their lives for the chance at a better life.
