Asylum seeker children to get postcards after murals painted over

Cartoons Not Cruelty campaign inspired by government order to remove artwork at reception centres

Thousands of asylum seeker children will be sent postcards with bright and cheerful cartoons on them after ministers recently ordered murals at two reception centres to be painted over last month.

The scheme, run by Cartoons Not Cruelty, will see 9,300 welcoming messages and postcards sent to children under the age of 14 who arrived in the UK last year. They will be assisted by the Refugee Council and the platform Find Others.
