Little Amal is the giant refugee puppet at the heart of “The Walk”. Since July 2021 she has travelled over 8000km in support of refugees. On Monday evening she came to Leeds and huge numbers of people walking with her up Briggate, through the old commercial centre of Leeds and up to Millenium Square with activities and performances happening along the way.
It is great that so many people respond to a giant refugee puppet but there are so many more real refugees - let us hope that more and more of them will get a warm welcome.
