We’re proud to support Rainbow Migration as our feature charity for the month of August, a cause that feels especially close to our hearts as a queer-owned company.

Rainbow Migration is Europe’s longest-running charity supporting LGBTQIA+ people seeking asylum in the UK. For so many LGBTQIA+ people seeking asylum, the sense of safety and belonging has been taken away, and the journey to rebuild it is filled with enormous challenges. Rainbow Migation provides legal advice, practical and emotional support, and campaigns for a fairer asylum system for people forced to flee persecution simply because of who they are or who they love.

In August, Stephen & Penelope and Westknits will be donating a portion of product and pattern sales to help support Rainbow Migration and the life changing work they do. If you’d like to learn more, support them directly, or get involved, head to their website here.
